Nitish Kumar Begins Historic Fifth Term
Nitish Kumar’s oath marked a milestone in Bihar’s political history—his fifth consecutive term and the tenth time he has been sworn in as chief minister, making him the state’s longest-serving leader.
BJP leaders Samrat Choudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha also took oath as Deputy Chief Ministers in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, several Union ministers, and senior NDA figures. Along with the top leadership, 18 cabinet ministers were inducted into the new government.

Following its major electoral setback, the Rashtriya Janata Dal struck a philosophical note, acknowledging the outcome while reaffirming its commitment to public service.
The party wrote on X, “Public service is an unceasing process, an endless journey. Ups and downs are inevitable in it. No sorrow in defeat, no arrogance in victory. The Rashtriya Janata Dal is the party of the poor. It will continue to raise their voice among the poor.”
