In a significant political development for Bihar, state minister Prem Kumar announced that the oath-taking ceremony for the newly formed government will occur on November 20 at Gandhi Maidan. The current governance will officially dissolve on November 19. The anticipated event is expected to see the attendance of Prime Minister Modi along with a large gathering of supporters, marking a historic moment for the state. Speculation surrounds the next chief minister, with Nitish Kumar, noted as Bihar's longest-serving CM, being the likely candidate for the role. Sanjay Kumar Jha, the JD-U working president, indicated that the ceremony would correspond to the substantial electoral win and the imperative for the NDA government under Nitish Kumar to address future developmental challenges. As part of a strategy to ensure equitable representation in the new cabinet, NDA allies are reportedly considering one ministerial position for every six members of the Legislative Assembly. This coalition includes parties like the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Janata Dal (United) (JD(U)), Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM), and Hindustani Awam Morcha (Secular) (HAM(S)). Meanwhile, a significant family feud has erupted within the prominent Yadav clan. Rohini Acharya, a daughter of Lalu Yadav, publicly resigned from politics and accused her brother Tejashwi Yadav and his associates of mistreatment. Following her allegations, several of her sisters took their children and left their family home in Patna. In response, Tej Pratap Yadav publicly defended the family, while Lalu Yadav expressed that the situation is an internal family matter that he intends to resolve. Political dynamics in Bihar are shifting as the NDA prepares for a new government amid familial discord in one of the state’s most influential political families.
