Hindustan Times Gurugram
|November 20, 2025
Nitish Kumar has been elected as the leader of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Bihar and will take oath as chief minister in Patna today. This is the tenth time he will be administered the chief ministerial oath in the state, the highest for any chief minister ever in India.

Kumar's first term as chief minister lasted just seven days in 2000 when his government had to resign after failing to muster a majority.

However, he quit as the chief minister after the Janata Dal
