Summary: Nitish Kumar returned as Chief Minister, with the NDA forming a fresh government and a new cabinet sworn in at Raj Bhavan.

Bihar politics shifted gears once again today as Nitish Kumar took oath as Chief Minister, marking yet another reshuffle in the state’s political landscape. The NDA returned to power with a new cabinet sworn in at Raj Bhavan, bringing an end to days of behind-the-scenes negotiations and fast-moving developments.

The oath-taking ceremony was brief and formal, but the mood around it was far from dull. Leaders from across the alliance gathered, security personnel kept things tight, and the throng outside was buzzing with anticipation about what this new arrangement might mean for the state.

Nitish changing alliances is not uncommon in Bihar, but each time he does so, the political rhythm is disrupted – parties adjust their policies, voter opinion shifts, and everyone waits to see where the state goes next.

Stability and effective governance appear to be the top priorities now that the NDA is back in power. Cabinet roles are expected to be distributed carefully, keeping regional balance and political expectations in mind. But as Bihar has shown time and again, politics here rarely stays still for long.
