"I know that there are certain challenges, but we know how to turn challenges into opportunities," the newly-appointed Bihar BJP chief said, while asserting that "the party would definitely form government in the state". Choudhary started his political career in 1990. His father, Shakuni Choudhary, was one of the founders of Samata party.
