The decision was taken at a meeting of BJP MLAs, where party legislators formally backed his name for the top post. With this, preparations have begun for the formation of a new government in the state.
Choudhary’s selection comes at a politically important moment in Bihar, with the BJP taking a leading role in the state’s power structure. His elevation is being seen as a major shift in the leadership equation within the ruling alliance.
Following the meeting, he is expected to be sworn in as Chief Minister shortly, once formal procedures and alliance approvals are completed.
Choudhary has been a key figure in the BJP’s Bihar unit and has held important organisational responsibilities. His appointment is seen as the party’s move to strengthen its leadership in the state and consolidate its position in the government.
Party leaders said the decision reflects a consensus among MLAs and aims to ensure stability and continuity in governance. The transition process is now underway, with official announcements expected soon.
The development marks a significant political change in Bihar, as the state prepares for a new leadership era under the BJP’s direction.
With this decision, attention now turns to the formal oath-taking ceremony and the formation of the new cabinet in the coming days.
