Despite the NDA's significant victory in the Bihar Assembly elections, there remains confusion regarding the Chief Minister's position, with the JD(U) announcing Nitish Kumar's name. However, the BJP, which won the most seats, has not yet made a clear statement on this. The BJP has stated that NDA legislators will decide who the Chief Minister will be.
The BJP has taken a very cautious stance regarding the Chief Minister's position and has avoided making any comments. The BJP has not yet directly named Nitish Kumar for the Chief Minister's position. BJP state president Dilip Jaiswal has said that a program will be held in a day or two to thank the public, and after that, NDA legislators will choose the leader. Throughout Saturday, there was a constant flow of leaders at Nitish Kumar's residence.
Nitish Kumar called the MLAs to Patna
The movements for government formation in Bihar have gained momentum, and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has asked his JD(U) MLAs to be present in Patna on Sunday (16th). It is likely that Nitish Kumar will discuss the formation of the cabinet and the chief ministership with the MLAs, and his name may be finalized in the legislative party meeting. Nitish Kumar will also discuss with the MLAs about the new government's policies, including the ministerial positions to be given to NDA allies.
