Patna: Bihar’s political landscape has once again witnessed a major political turn. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has resigned from his post. He arrived at Raj Bhavan on Tuesday and submitted his resignation to Governor Arif Mohammad Khan. His unexpected move has sparked political debate across the state. Politics is heating up over who will become the next Chief Minister and what the new government’s alignment will be.

According to political sources, Nitish Kumar called the final cabinet meeting of his current cabinet on Monday, after which there were indications that the power dynamics in the state were about to change. Immediately after the meeting, he went directly to Raj Bhavan and submitted his resignation.

Preparations to Form a New Government After Nitish Kumar’s Resignation

According to sources, Nitish Kumar is now preparing to form a new government. He is holding strategic meetings with his allies, where discussions are likely to focus on new alliances, cabinet expansion, and government structure.

Sources claim that if the political equations are finalized, Nitish Kumar could be sworn in as the Chief Minister of the state on November 20th. Preparations for the swearing-in ceremony at the historic Gandhi Maidan have already begun. This year’s ceremony could be even grander, as it will mark a historic milestone in Nitish Kumar’s political career.

A Record-breaking 10th Sworn-in Possible After Nitish Kumar’s Resignation

Both the people of Bihar and political experts are keenly watching to see whether Nitish Kumar will set another record by taking oath as Chief Minister for the 10th time. Following the dissolution of the 17th Legislative Assembly, a new dynamic is being observed in the state’s politics.

Political analysts believe that this move by Nitish Kumar could bring about a major change in Bihar politics, directly impacting the upcoming assembly elections and the political landscape of 2025.

Political circles are speculating that after his resignation, Nitish Kumar may hold a crucial meeting with his close leaders and potential alliance partners. This meeting could decide:

  • Which parties will participate in the government?
  • Who will get which ministerial position?
  • And what will be the future strategy?

Bihar voters are also closely monitoring this political development, as this decision could impact the state’s development plans and administrative structure.
