Government Was Functioning With Limited Cabinet
Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary along with Deputy Chief Ministers Vijay Kumar Choudhary and Bijendra Prasad Yadav had taken oath at Lok Bhavan on April 15. Since then, cabinet meetings were being held, but the full structure of the government had not yet taken shape.
Even during Wednesday’s cabinet meeting, only these three senior leaders were present. With today’s expansion, the government will finally get its complete ministerial team.
Top NDA Leaders to Attend Event
Several senior NDA leaders are expected to remain present during the oath-taking ceremony at Gandhi Maidan. These include Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Union Health Minister J. P. Nadda, BJP national president Nitin Naveen, and JD(U) national president Nitish Kumar.
Union ministers from Bihar are also expected to attend the event, making it one of the biggest political gatherings in the state in recent months.
