In his address to the nation, the Prime Minister had mentioned Chhath festival which is celebrated with much fanfare by people of Bihar and that taking upcoming festivals into consideration he is allowing extension of free ration scheme till festival season and that the extension of PM Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana would cost the government Rs 90,000 crore.

Sanjay Jaiswal, Bihar BJP President said that because the festival season ends with Chhath could be a reason why Prime Minister Modi tweeted in Bhojpuri.
"This extension of ration along with MNREGA would prove to be extremely helpful for those migrated back to the state during the coronavirus-induced lockdown. As far as tweets in Bhojpuri is concerned, it is a language accepted worldwide and the scheme of the free ration is for the whole country and is a very big, bold and praiseworthy decision by the PM," said Bihar BJP chief.
Former BJP Delhi President Manoj Tiwari too thanked the Prime Minister for tweeting in Bhojpuri.
