Former Maharashtra CM and Bharatiya Janata Party leader Devendra Fadnavis appointed party's Bihar in-charge, ahead of Bihar Legislative Assembly elections.

Fadnavis has been roped in by the party leadership for the poll preparedness and attended a Bihar core committee meeting through video-conferencing this month. He is said to have presented his viewpoints on different matters.

The elections for the 243-member Bihar assembly will take place from October 28th to November 7th.

Fadnavis being given the charge of Bihar elections is in line with the partys policy of entrusting its key leaders with the responsibility of handling state elections. Late BJP leader Ananth Kumar was the partys in-charge for the Bihar assembly polls in 2015.
