00:00Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's dream project is to build a rubber dam on the Falgunadi river of Gaya.
00:05The purpose of this project was to ensure that the trithiyatis do not have to face water problems for years.

06:12their ancestors

06:58with a cost of Rs. 350 crores

07:04for years.
07:06But now,
