- ABihar
- BChhattisgarh
- CJharkhand
- DWest Bengal
Explanation
The Union Budget 2024-25 announced Purvodaya for the all-round development of the eastern region, explicitly covering five states: Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Odisha and Andhra Pradesh. Since Bihar is one of the five covered states, it cannot be the answer to 'which state is not a part'. Chhattisgarh, a central Indian state, is not part of Purvodaya. Hence the state not covered is Chhattisgarh.
