The focus is on the government formation in Bihar, with Nitish Kumar taking oath as Chief Minister for a tenth term. The cabinet will include two Deputy Chief Ministers from the BJP, Samrat Chaudhary and Vijay Sinha, alongside ministers from the JDU, BJP, and other NDA allies like the LJP (Ram Vilas), HAM, and RLM. JDU leader KC Tyagi stated, 'When Nitish Kumar resigns from the post of Chief Minister in 2014 after losing the Lok Sabha elections, he makes a man from the most Dalit community of Bihar, the Manjhi community, the Chief Minister, not his brother or son.' The swearing-in ceremony at Patna's Gandhi Maidan will be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and other senior NDA leaders. This bulletin details the preliminary cabinet composition and the political dynamics of the new government.
