BJP national general secretary Arun Singh announced that the Parliamentary Board named Agriculture and Rural Development Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan to supervise the crucial election of the party's Bihar MLAs' leader. This move signals the National Democratic Alliance's (NDA) readiness to install a BJP face at the helm after JD(U) supremo Nitish Kumar's exit from state politics.
