Tableaux based on the life of Mother Sita have been presented on seven inscriptions, including Sita Janam, Phulwari, Vivah Panchami, Doli Kahar, Agni Pariksha etc. The tableaux of Radha-Krishna, Krishna-Sudama and poet Kokil Vidyapati have been shown on the remaining three inscriptions.

Instructions to complete the remaining works within 15 days
During the site inspection, the minister directed the officials of the department to complete the remaining works of the last phase of finishing within 15 days. It is notable that the work of these works was also started by Water Resources Minister Sanjay Kumar Jha on April 30, 2022.
Security of airport and air force complex will be better
Sanjay Kumar Jha said that there used to be a situation of water logging in the Darbhanga airport complex during the monsoon season. There was a fear that water might not reach the runway. If this happens, the operation of the planes would have been disrupted. He is happy that the work of strengthening the Ring Dam of the Water Resources Department around the entire Air Force Complex including the airport and the construction of a metalled road on it is almost complete, with the aim of ensuring safety from floods and water logging. He said that the construction of a metalled road on the Ring Dam would also help in patrolling the entire Air Force complex, which would further improve the security of the airport and the Air Force complex.
