In a recent update on the ongoing development in Bihar politics, after resigning from the post of Bihar’s Chief Minister and ending his alliance with the the Lalu Prasad Yadav`s Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and Congress, Nitish Kumar took oath as the Chief Minister of Bihar after he along with his party joined the BJP-led NDA bloc. Nitish Kumar was seen arriving at the Raj Bhavan today evening for the oath ceremony. BJP national president JP Nadda arrived at Raj Bhavan, in Patna to attend the oath ceremony of the new government. This is the 9th time, when Nitish Kumar is taking the oath as the Chief minister of Bihar.

Amid the ongoing Bihar political crisis, Nitish Kumar has resigned as Bihar Chief Minister. Nitish Kumar tendered his resignation as the Chief Minister of Bihar to Governor Rajendra Arlekar. The Governor accepted the resignation and deputed him as the Acting CM. For days it was speculated that Nitish Kumar would join the BJP-led NDA. He is expected to rejoin NDA possibly later today, marking his return to the BJP led alliance. This has come as a jolt to the opposition headed I-N-D–I-A alliance as he was a key member. In his recent stint, he served as the Chief Minister of Bihar in alliance with the Lalu Prasad Yadav`s Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and Congress. Earlier in the morning, BJP leaders gathered in Patna for a party meeting. Though the leaders were mum about the ongoing RJD-JDU rift, speculations of a coalition were high.
