A noticeable change has occurred outside the JD(U) office in Patna as all posters, including those with the slogan “From ’25 to ’30—Fir Se Nitish,” have been removed. This slogan was central to the NDA’s election campaign, promising Nitish Kumar’s continued tenure as Chief Minister. The removal of these posters has led to a quiet atmosphere outside the party office, seen as a significant political gesture.
A growing speculation surrounds the potential resignation of Nitish Kumar, who has been at the helm of Bihar’s governance for close to two decades. This possible shift in leadership, in a government established just four months ago, marks a crucial juncture in the state’s political landscape. Meanwhile, a key meeting was held at the Chief Minister’s residence, attended by prominent JD(U) members and Union Minister Rajiv Ranjan Singh.
Discussions during the meeting focused on the formation of a new government, hinting at upcoming changes in Bihar’s political setup. Sources suggest that a legislative party meeting of JD(U) might be called to finalize future strategies. Additionally, there is buzz about the potential entry of Nishant Kumar into active politics, with party leaders considering assigning him a role in either the government or party organization.
The process of power transition in Bihar seems to be nearing its conclusion, evident from the removal of posters and ongoing high-level meetings. The next 48 hours are crucial as Bihar awaits a significant decision on who will assume leadership in the state, indicating a pivotal moment in its political trajectory.
