End of an era or new beginning?

Nitish Kumar’s resignation is not just a change of post, but is being considered as the closing of a long chapter of Bihar politics. From 2005 till now, the politics of the state has revolved around him. His specialty was that he not only achieved power, but also kept himself at the center despite frequently changing political equations.

Records that became identities

– Oath of the post of Chief Minister 10 times
– Resigned from the post of Chief Minister 6 times
– Record of taking oath 4 times in 4 years

These figures reflect not just numbers, but their political skills and ability to adapt themselves to circumstances.

From initial struggle to peak

Nitish Kumar became the Chief Minister for the first time on March 3, 2000, but due to not being able to prove majority, he had to resign in just a week. However, this failure did not become the end for him. In 2005, he made a strong comeback and after this made a permanent mark in the politics of Bihar.

master of coalition politics

Nitish Kumar’s biggest identity has been his coalition politics. Separated from BJP in 2013, then
Formed government with RJD and Congress in 2015. After this he again returned to NDA in 2017. After this, it again joined the Grand Alliance in 2022 and again associated with the NDA in 2024. This constantly changing equation makes him the most flexible and strategic leader of Indian politics.

Pattern of return to power

Nitish Kumar’s political pattern has been very interesting-

– Resigning, creating new equations and then returning to power.
– After poor performance in the Lok Sabha elections in 2014, he resigned taking moral responsibility,
– Returned to power again in 2015
– Even in 2017, he resigned and formed a new government within a few hours.

This shows that despite being out of power, he remained at the political center.

Now the stance of Rajya Sabha

After the resignation of Nitish Kumar, there is a possibility of formation of a new government under the leadership of BJP. With this, a new direction can be seen in the politics of Bihar. Whereas Nitish Kumar is turning towards the central power i.e. Rajya Sabha. He has also taken oath as MP. New leadership style, new faces and different strategies can influence the politics of the state, especially in the political equations after 2025.
