“Will fulfil dreams of Viksit Bihar”: Kushwaha on Samrat Choudhary elected as leader of NDA Legislative Party in Bihar

Speaking to reporters here, Kushwaha said, “Samrat Choudhary has been elected as the Leader of the NDA Legislative Party. He will realise the dreams of the state being Viksit Bihar. He will meet the expectations of the 14 crore people of Bihar.”

Praising Nitish Kumar, who has resigned as Bihar CM, the JD(U) leader said that Choudhary would carry forward his governance model.”He will carry forward the good governance model of our leader, Nitish Kumar. Someone like Nitish Kumar takes birth once in an era; the absence of such a leader will always be felt,” he said.

Kushwaha further asserted that there is no alternative to the veteran leader.”There has never been, and there never will be, an alternative to Nitish Kumar. There is no such leader,” he added.

Earlier today, Samrat Choudhary was elected as the Leader of the BJP Legislative Party in Bihar, paving the way for his elevation as the state Chief Minister following the resignation of Nitish Kumar.He spoke to ANI following the ceremony, stating, “In my life, the BJP gave me several opportunities to serve.”He assured the party’s top leadership og prioritising India’s development above everything else. “We will continue to take up the work of considering India before everything else and considering it the best, and prioritising the party,” he said.

Samrat Choudhary is set to be the first Chief Minister of the BJP in Bihar. He has been working as a political worker for about 30 years, working with the BJP since 2015.This development comes after the longest-serving CM of Bihar, Nitish Kumar, who has been Chief Minister for the past 21 years, tendered his resignation to Governor Lt Gen Syed Ata Hasnain (Retd) at Lok Bhavan in Patna. He took oath as a Member of the Rajya Sabha on April 10.

Kumar’s ways of manoeuvring alliance politics have been crucial for the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) being in power in Bihar.
