Samrat Choudhary appointed as new Chief Minister of Bihar
薩姆拉特·喬杜里獲任命為比哈爾邦新任首席部長
On April 15, 2026, Samrat Choudhary made history by becoming the first Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader to be sworn in as the Chief Minister of Bihar.
2026年4月15日，山拉特·喬德哈里（ㄕㄢㄌㄚㄊˋㄑㄧㄠˇㄉㄜˊㄏㄚㄌㄧˇ）創造了歷史，成為第一位宣誓就職的印度人民黨（BJP）籍比哈爾邦首席部長。
This momentous shift concludes two decades of political dominance by outgoing leader Nitish Kumar, who stepped down to join the Rajya Sabha.
這一重大轉變終結了前任領導人尼提希·庫馬爾（ㄋㄧˊㄊㄧˊㄒㄧㄎㄨˋㄇㄚˇㄦˇ）長達二十年的政治統治，後者為加入聯邦院（Rajya Sabha）而辭職。
Choudhary, born in 1968, transitioned from his role as Deputy Chief Minister to lead the state, representing a strategic focus on the OBC community.
出生於1968年的喬德哈里（ㄑㄧㄠˇㄉㄜˊㄏㄚㄌㄧˇ），從副首席部長的角色晉升為州領導人，代表了對其他落後階級（OBC）社群的戰略性關注。
His journey is marked by his time in various political parties before finding a home in the BJP in 2017.
他的政治生涯曾在多個政黨間轉換，直到2017年加入印度人民黨。
A memorable detail of his rise to power is the 'saffron turban' pledge; he famously vowed to keep his turban on until the previous administration was replaced, a promise he finally fulfilled.
他崛起過程中一個令人難忘的細節是「藏紅色頭巾」的誓言；他曾名聞遐邇地誓言，在現任政府被更換前，他絕不摘下頭巾，而他最終實現了這個諾言。
As he takes office at the Lok Bhawan in Patna, the inclusion of senior ministers from the JD(U) indicates that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) coalition remains intact.
當他在巴特那的洛克巴旺（Lok Bhawan）就職時，來自人民黨（JD(U)）的資深部長們被納入內閣，顯示國家民主聯盟（NDA）的聯合體制依然穩固。
This transition is widely seen as a decisive political reset, positioning the BJP as the central force in Bihar’s governance for the first time.
這次過渡被廣泛視為一場決定性的政治重整，使印度人民黨首次成為比哈爾邦治理的核心力量。
