The leader of the opposition made the demand in his brief address at a centenary function of the state assembly premises here, which was attended by the PM.
The former deputy CM also urged Modi to consider setting up a ''school of legislative studies'' in Bihar, which boasts of being home to the ''oldest republic in the world'' at Vaishali.
