New West Bengal CM to take oath on May 9, says state BJP chief Samik Bhattacharya
BJP's West Bengal unit President Samik Bhattacharya has said that the oath-taking ceremony of the new CM will take place on May 9.
This comes after BJP won 206/293 seats in the assembly elections to form West Bengal government for the first time.
While BJP hasn't officially announced the CM face, Suvendu Adhikari is being pitched as the leading candidate.
