Who is Vishnu Deo Sai? On Sunday, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) announced Vishnu Deo Sai’s appointment as the next chief minister of Chhattisgarh, putting an end to a week of anticipation. Former state chief minister Raman Singh put forth his name during a gathering of the party’s recently elected legislatures.
Sai became the frontrunner despite reports about Raman Singh and Renuka Singh. Top party leaders Arjun Munda, Sarbananda Sonowal, and Dushyant Kumar Gautam were central observers for chief ministerial selection before this.
Become informed about the upcoming chief minister of Chhattisgarh.
Sai, who was born in the then-Madhya Pradesh town of Kunkuri, Chhatisgarh, on February 21, 1964, had previously served as the party’s state president from 2020 to 2022. His heritage is with the Kanwar tribe.
Additionally, he served as the Union Minister of State for Steel in the inaugural ministry of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Additionally, he served as a Chhattisgarh MLA from 1990 to 1998 and then as a member of the Lok Sabha from 1999 to 2019. Before entering politics, Sai pursued a career in agriculture.
In the recent state assembly elections, Sai defeated Congress MLA UD Minj from Kunkuri. Despite four stints in Parliament representing Raigarh from 1999 to 2014, he was ineligible for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
The date of the oath has not yet been disclosed.
The BJP has not yet determined the day on which the new government will take office. On the same day, December 3, the Assembly election results for the states of Mizoram, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and Telangana were declared. The BJP has not yet decided who will be the chief minister of Pradesh and Rajasthan.
