"Time to remove my turban...": Samrat Choudhary on his old vow regarding CM Nitish Kumar

Patna (Bihar) [India], July 2 : Recalling his old vow, Bihar Deputy Chief Minister and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Samrat Choudhary on Tuesday said that it is time for him to remove his turban and keep it at the feet of Lord Ram.
After Bihar CM Nitish Kumar jumped ship to the Mahagathbandhan in 2022 after ditching the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), Choudhary started sporting a turban and vowed that he would take it off after "dethroning" the former.
"True that I had pledged to wear the turban until I made Nitish Kumar resign as the Chief Minister. But now that he has switched back to the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) after resigning as the Chief Minister of the INDI-Alliance, it is time for me to dedicate this turban to the feet of Lord Ram. The day Nitish Kumarji resigned as the Chief Minister of the INDI-Alliance and joined back the NDA, I announced that I would dedicate my turban to Lord Ram," Choudhary said while speaking to ANI.
Nitish Kumar joined back the NDA bloc in January this year, after having developed "differences" with the Mahagathbandhan alliance. This was his fifth crossover in the past ten years, preceding his ninth time as the Chief Minister.
This led to the collapse of the Mahagathbandhan government after which the NDA government was formed in the state.
BJP leaders Samrat Choudhary and Vijay Sinha were sworn in as the Deputy Chief Ministers.
Meanwhile, Choudhary will land in Ayodhya today. He will place his turban in the Ram Temple tomorrow after shaving off his head.
