(oppressed) was 86 percent in the state, he added.
“All landless people in Bihar should be given land by the government and there is need of the hour to carry out land survey “, the Jan Suraaj founder said, adding that his party, if voted to power, would carry out land survey to collect data in details, so that justice could be done to all particularly those who lagged behind on path of development.
