Nitish Kumar or a BJP leader: Who will be Bihar's next Chief Minister? PM Modi has clarified.

Following the NDA's landslide victory in Bihar, PM Modi made a significant statement about Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. He described the NDA's victory as a "victory for good governance." This statement is being seen as a support for Nitish Kumar's continued tenure as Chief Minister.

Following the NDA's landslide victory in Bihar, Modi posted on Instagram, writing, "Nitish is popular among his supporters as 'Sushasan Babu' and claims to have brought about change by improving law and order and development over the last 20 years. This is a victory for Bihar's development. A victory for public welfare. A victory for social justice."

Congratulations to Nitish Kumar: Nitish Kumar

He allayed fears about Nitish's continued tenure as Chief Minister, saying, "I congratulate all NDA leaders for their excellent work and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for his leadership." He also allayed fears about Nitish Kumar's continued tenure, despite the BJP emerging as the single largest party.

It should be noted that after the Bihar election results, the BJP won 89 seats, the JDU 85, the LJP(R) 19, the HAM 5, and the RLM 4. Since then, the opposition has been consistently claiming that the BJP will not reappoint Nitish Kumar as Chief Minister.
