Samrat Choudhary New Bihar CM

Choudhary, a prominent figure from the Koeri community, has vowed to carry forward the state's development agenda under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi.

His appointment follows a strategic political shift that saw the BJP strengthen its position within the ruling alliance.

The transition has been met with celebration in his home village of Lakhanpur, where he is seen as a symbol of regional empowerment.

Opposition parties, however, have criticized the move as a betrayal of the original electoral mandate.
