A few months ago, we had received a letter from Mr. Donald L. Reid of Ayrshire, Scotland, informing us that there is yet another place on this planet that shares the name of the capital city of Bihar, Patna. Since then, we, at PatnaDaily.Com, had been toying with the idea of sharing this information with our visitors but for one reason or another, the idea remained just that, an idea!
This past December, however, things changed as Mr. Reid, a social historian who has written a number of books on the Valley of Doon in Scotland, its rich history and culture, once again expressed his fascination with Patna, Bihar, and the fact that his beloved town and our equally-beloved city shared more than just the name.

Ms Sturgeon, Scotland’s First Minister, has ramped up her calls for a second independence referendum after Holyrood and Westminster took radically different stances over Brexit and the pandemic. Despite the SNP campaign in the 2014 referendum being unsuccessful, Ms Sturgeon and her party have seen a surge of support in recent weeks. New polls suggest that the pro-independence Scots may actually tip the scales in favour of leaving the UK, if Westminster were to grant a public vote on the matter now.
It is time for real change and reform.
It’s time for a real alternative to Nicola Sturgeon’s SNP and the tired parties of opposition at Holyrood. It is time to shake up Scottish politics, to wake up the politicians and give the people of Scotland a fresh voice. I am proud to say that as of Monday this week I lead that new alternative: Reform UK Scotland.
For those of you who do not know me very well I am Michelle Ballantyne.
I have been a Member of the Scottish Parliament since 2017. I am no career politician, I have been a nurse and manager on the front line of our NHS, I have worked in our most valued public service; I have lead charities that support some of the most vulnerable people in our community; I have set up and run my own business. All while raising a large family. I understand the challenges facing families across Scotland because I have lived through them too.
