No CM vacancy in NDA, Nitish is and will remain Chief Minister: Samrat Choudhary

In an exclusive interview with India Today, Bihar's Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary affirmed that Nitish Kumar is and will remain the state's Chief Minister, stating there is 'no vacancy' for the position. Chaudhary also countered Mahagathbandhan's recently released manifesto, questioning the financial viability of Tejashwi Yadav's job promises. He dismissed the pledge to repeal the Waqf Amendment Act as 'childish,' challenging Tejashwi's legislative capacity. Chaudhary also accused Lalu Prasad Yadav of obstructing the Women's Reservation Bill in Parliament. He contrasted what he called Lalu Yadav's legacy of making empty announcements with Nitish Kumar's focus on development and delivering basic needs to the public.
