Bihar, whenever I utter this word to non-biharis (here the non-Biharis = those who belong to other states than Bihar, UP and Jharkhand), the reactions and expressions are something to relish.. I can recall many incidents…

A couple of years back, I was in Mumbai for an interview.At the interview center I met a guy, nattily dressed (in jeans and t-shirt, with “a wisdom quote”) with gelled hair, looking anxious, as I got to know later that his interview was scheduled the next day. To make himself ready for the interview. He approached me, as I was coming out after the interview and after my dose of recently got knowledge and expert opinion on how to face that interview board and what to prepare for, he asked me for my email id. I took out my visiting card (I ran a Computer Education Center) and handed it to him. A glance at the card, he was looking at me, like he was seeing Michael Jackson in Dhoti Kurta or for that matter, Adnani Sami doing a break dance.. . Are you from Bihar? Yes. And you have an internet connection in Bihar ?? I just looked at his face there was no sign, which can indicate that he was going to digest a positive answer..
