New Delhi, 21 April (H.S.):

Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary held a courtesy meeting Tuesday with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, discussing key development issues for the state. The Prime Minister's Office shared photographs of the meeting on social media platforms.

Just five days after his April 15 oath-taking, Choudhary's Delhi visit marked his first interaction with PM Modi as Chief Minister. Official sources confirmed discussions covered ongoing development projects and future plans.

Posting the images on X, CM Choudhary wrote: Received invaluable guidance from the Prime Minister on the vision of 'Viksit Bharat and Samriddh Bihar.' He added that PM Modi's affection and support will accelerate Bihar's progress.

Choudhary was sworn in alongside JDU's Vijay Kumar Choudhary and Vijendra Prasad Yadav as Deputy Chief Ministers. All eyes now remain on imminent cabinet expansion.
