Criminals will have to leave Bihar: Samrat Choudhary

Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary on Saturday asserted that ‘Sushasan’ (good governance) will remain the focus of the NDA government in the state and criminals will have to leave it. The Home portfolio of Bihar, which CM Nitish Kumar kept with himself all through his nearly 20-year-long tenure, was given on Friday to Choudhary, a BJP leader.

“Under the leadership of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, the NDA government transformed Bihar from Jungle Raj to ‘Sushasan’. I must say that maintaining Sushasan will remain the focus of the NDA government... And criminals will have to leave Bihar,” Choudhary told reporters at the state BJP office here.

When asked whether Bihar will implement the ‘Uttar Pradesh model’ of policing or not, he replied, “Sushasan is already there in the state and it will continue. Bihar is not for criminals.”
