Bihar's Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Choudhary visited his ancestral village, Kewta, in Samastipur district on Monday, marking his first visit since assuming office.

The occasion turned into a celebratory event as villagers extended a grand welcome, raising slogans in his support and creating an atmosphere of a festival across the locality.

Vijay Kumar Choudhary expressed pride in representing Samastipur at such a high level, noting that after Karpoori Thakur, he is the second leader from the district to hold the post of Deputy Chief Minister.

Bharat Ratna Karpoori Thakur became the chief minister of Bihar twice and is known as a social reformer of the country.

Vijay Kumar Choudhary assured the public that he would work tirelessly for the development of Bihar, with special focus on his home district.

A senior leader of the Janata Dal (United), Vijay Kumar Choudhary, is considered a close associate of former Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and has won multiple Assembly elections, including the 2020 polls.

His longstanding political experience and grassroots connections have made him a prominent figure in Bihar's political landscape.

Currently, in the government led by Samrat Choudhary, he is handling as many as 10 ministerial portfolios on an interim basis, pending the expansion of the cabinet.

Apart from Vijay Kumar Choudhary, Bijendra Prasad Yadav is another Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar, who is holding 8 ministry portfolios. He is also considered a trusted leader of Nitish Kumar.

Grand welcome in ancestral village - this is what Indian politics is all about! The respect for local leaders is unmatched. But I hope the development work reaches Kewta too, not just the constituency he represents. Bihar needs equal growth for all villages. 🙏

Interesting how in India, even deputy CMs get such warm welcomes from their home villages. In the US, this would just be a press release. The emotional connection between leaders and their roots is something we don't see often here.

BJP-JDU alliance mei kya chal raha hai? Pehle Nitish Kumar, ab Samrat Choudhary - and now Vijay Kumar Choudhary handling 10 portfolios? Let's hope this transient arrangement actually translates to work on ground, especially in education and healthcare sectors which are Bihar's biggest challenges.

Karpoori Thakur ka naam liya - that's a good sign. He was true leader of backward classes. Vijay ji should work for farmers and poor, not just for political gains. Samastipur's development ka wait karte hain ab. ✌️
