Patna, Apr 16:
Bihar will be governed on the “Modi-Nitish model”, said Samrat Choudhary after being sworn in as chief minister on Wednesday, as congratulations rolled in from NDA leaders who exuded confidence that the state would progress rapidly under his leadership.
Governor Lt Gen Syed Ata Hasnain (retd) administered the oath of office and secrecy to Choudhary as chief minister, a day after Nitish Kumar resigned after serving in the post for the longest period. “I will immediately start working for the prosperity of the state. It should remain clear that Bihar will continue to be governed on the Modi-Nitish model,” the new chief minister said after the ceremony.
Congratulating Choudhary on being sworn in as the first BJP chief minister of Bihar, NDA leaders exuded confidence that the state would progress rapidly and contribute to materialising Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s resolve for a ‘Viksit Bharat’.
