Political Atmosphere in Delhi
Many political figures from across the country were present at the reception.

Samrat Choudhary's Responsibility for the Home Department
It is noteworthy that Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary has been given the responsibility of the Home Department for the first time. Immediately after assuming office, reports of bulldozer actions from various parts of the state began to surface. This has sparked a political debate between the opposition and the ruling parties. In this context, Irfan Ansari's public discussion of this issue is considered politically significant.
Ansari Shared His Thoughts on X
Irfan Ansari wrote on X that the Governor of Jharkhand, Santosh Gangwar, is like a guardian to him and that he met with the Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar at his son's wedding ceremony. Ansari clarified that he said, “Do not use the language of bulldozers, adopt the language of brotherhood and dialogue.” He also said that connecting society should be the primary responsibility of politics and should not be ignored.
Ansari mentioned the familial and political relations of both leaders in his message. He stated that his and Samrat Choudhary's fathers have worked together and that the two families have had a long-standing relationship. In this context, he urged that just as efforts are being made to connect society in Jharkhand, a politics of inclusion should be pursued in Bihar, rather than one that creates division.
Rejected the Uttar Pradesh Model
The Health Minister of Jharkhand clearly stated that 'imitating Uttar Pradesh will not work in Bihar.' He also said that the people of Bihar will not tolerate politics that creates division in society. This statement came in the context of the ongoing political debate and criticism of the bulldozer actions in the state.
