The Bihar Government would take loan from the World Bank for construction of buildings for gram panchayats, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said here on Thursday.

“World Bank has in-principle agreed to provide loan for construction of the gram panchayat buildings,” he said at the training programme for the panchayati raj representatives here.

These buildings would be called panchayat sarkar bhawan and will house the offices of various representatives of the panchayats, he said.
