On 19 January 2023, Yadav won a motion of confidence with 102 out of 102 votes in the 107-member Madhesh Provincial Assembly, where all political parties and independent members supported him[3].
On May 15, 2023, CPN (UML) retracted its support for the government. As a result, Chief Minister Yadav faced a vote of confidence for the second time on June 14, 2023, and successfully secured it.[4]
Yadav allied with CPN (Unified Marxist–Leninist), Nepali Congress, Janamat Party, Loktantrik Samajwadi Party, Nepal, CPN (Maoist Centre) and CPN (Unified Socialist) on different occasions during his tenure.
After failure to secure the vote of confidence in Madhesh Provincial Assembly on 5 June 2024, he was relieved from his position.[5]
