"Development and fight against corruption is our main priority. We will also continue our fight against corruption.

He further said that his new government will take Bihar towards development with the same pace with which it was progressing in 7.5 years of NDA rule. Sushil Modi was sworn in as the Deputy of Bihar on July 27, a day after Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar was ended the 'mahagathbandhan' and came back to the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) fold, with taking the oath for the sixth time.
