Choudhary was unanimously elected during the NDA legislature party meeting, following the resignation of long-serving Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. Kumar’s departure set the stage for a significant shift in Bihar’s governance.

On April 15, 2026, at 11 AM, Choudhary will take the oath of office, solidifying his role in the state’s leadership. This decision comes after days of suspense and speculation regarding the future of Bihar’s government.

Choudhary met with Governor Syed Ata Hasnain to formally stake his claim to form the government, a crucial step in the transition of power. Senior JD(U) leaders Vijay Choudhary and Bijendra Yadav are also set to take oath as deputy chief ministers, indicating a collaborative approach within the ruling coalition.

The political dynamics in Bihar are shifting, with the BJP now at the helm, a significant change from the previous administration led by Kumar. This transition is expected to reshape policies and governance in the state.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding the specific agenda Choudhary plans to pursue once in office, but his leadership is anticipated to bring new strategies to Bihar’s political framework.
