The newly appointed Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary on Sunday said that his government’s biggest concern is that youth of the Bihar should get work in their native state adding that establishing law and order will also be a priority of his government.
“Bihar is an important state in the country. We will try to fulfil the commitments made by NDA to the people in 2020. Our priority is to increase employment and establish law and order. Our biggest concern is that the youth of Bihar should get work in Bihar,” Samrat Choudhary told ANI.
After a dramatic volte-face, ditching the Mahagathbandhan and the opposition bloc INDIA and forming a new government with the BJP, JD(U) chief Nitish Kumar, along with eight ministers–three each from the BJP and the JD-U, one from HAM and one independent–took oath last week.
Two Deputy CMs from the BJP, Samrat Choudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha, and six other ministers, including Bijendra Prasad Yadav, Santosh Kumar Suman, Shrawan Kumar, and others, also took the oath.
Earlier, Samrat Choudhary said that the National Democratic Alliance, which is now the ruling bloc in the state, will work to realise the unfulfilled dreams of the people under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and CM Nitish Kumar. Deputy chief minister said that the state will move further towards the path of development due to the ‘double engine’ government. Nitish Kumar cited the state of affairs being “not right” under the Mahagathbandhan alliance as his reason for quitting.
