Popularly called 'Bihari Babu', Sinha addressed NRIs at a fund-raising dinner for cancer patients last night along with noted singer Pankaj Udhas and legendary cricketer Sunil Gavaskar.

He told PTI here over the phone that he saw a "keenness" among people to know more about Bihar.

The BJP Rajya Sabha member told NRIs the state held great promise in agriculture, health and infrastructure.

Sinha claimed that during his interactions with Indians settled in the US, people acknowledged the positive changes in the state with the installation of the NDA Government headed by Nitish Kumar, but were worried about the frequent incidents of kidnapping.
