Former Chhattisgarh BJP president Vishnu Deo Sai, hailing from the influential Sahu (Teli) community, will be the next chief minister of Chhattisgarh. The decision was made during a meeting of the BJP's newly-elected 54 MLAs, with the presence of observers Arjun Munda, Sarbananda Sonowal, and Dushyant Kumar Gautam. Sai won from Kunkuri in north Chhattisgarh, a region the BJP has swept. The BJP won 54 of the 90 seats in the state, with tribal-dominated Surguja division being a key factor in their victory.
