Bihar CM Nitish Kumar thanks PM Modi after forming govt with BJP

Soon following Nitish Kumar’s take over as CM, PM Modi congratulated him and saying that the NDA government formed in Bihar will move heaven and earth for the
development of the state and to fulfill the aspirations of its people.

Reportedly, Nitish Kumar after deviating ties with the RJD and joins NDA, formed the government with the BJP in Bihar. He took oath as Chief Minister alongside two deputy chief ministers from the BJP.

PM further congratulated Nitish Kumar on taking oath as Chief Minister, Samrat Chaudhary ji, and Vijay Sinha ji on taking oath as Deputy Chief Ministers. He is confident that this team will serve his family members of the state with full dedication.

Soon after this, Nitish in a tweet thanked Prime Minister Modi for his cooperation.

Nitish said with the NDA coalition government at the Center and the state, development work will gain momentum.

Earlier in the day, RJD leader and Nitish’s former ally Tejashwi Yadav claimed credit for the work done in the past 1.5 years. He said the CM used to say that it is impossible to give jobs, but the RJD gave jobs and showed that it was possible. They brought new policies in tourism, IT, and sports. The work that was done in 17 months could not be done in 17 years (of BJP-JDU rule). We did historic work in the 17 months,” he added.

However, Nitish while speaking to reporters after taking over as the CM minister said that Tejashwi did not do any development work. He also rejected talks that he may make another U-tun ahead of the assembly polls.

Now that he is back where he was before in NDA and now there is no question of going anywhere.
