Shifting of goods underway at Nitish Kumar's residence

Bihar CM Nitish Kumar begins moving from official residence after taking oath as Rajya Sabha MP. BJP says no differences in NDA over new CM.

"There are no differences anywhere; everything is proceeding as per schedule. - Nitin Nabin"

Patna, April 11

Shifting of goods is underway from the official residence of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, who has taken oath as a Rajya Sabha member.

Nitish Kumar took oath as a Rajya Sabha member on Friday.

Longest-serving Chief Minister of Bihar, Nitish Kumar, resigned from his membership of the Bihar Legislative Council following his election to the upper house of Parliament.

Nitish Kumar was elected to the Rajya Sabha on March 16, along with four other candidates from Bihar fielded by the NDA. Kumar has also been elected as JD(U) president unopposed, after no other candidate filed nomination for the post.

BJP president Nitin Nabin had said in an interview with ANI that there are no differences in the NDA over the pending appointment of a new Bihar Chief Minister.

"There are no differences anywhere; everything is proceeding as per schedule. BJP has always respected the gathbandhan dharma, and that is why even today parties trust us. Everything is being decided under the leadership of Nitish Kumar," Nabin told ANI.

Beginning his political journey as an MLA in 1985 and later serving as a Union Minister under the Atal Bihari Vajpayee government, Nitish Kumar first became Bihar Chief Minister in 2005. He is among the most experienced and senior political leaders in the country.

Interesting move. Shifting goods from the official residence suggests a bigger transition is imminent. The BJP president's statement about "no differences" is the standard line, but the real test will be who becomes the next CM. Watching closely!

With all due respect to his seniority and experience, this feels like a carefully managed political exit. The timing and the seamless election as JD(U) president unopposed... it's all very smooth. One hopes the focus remains on governance for Bihar, not just party politics.

He has seen it all! From the Vajpayee era to now. A lifetime in politics. But the real question for us Biharis is - what does this mean for our state? Will there be stability or more political drama? The "gathbandhan dharma" needs to hold for the sake of development.

The logistical details like "shifting of goods" make the story very tangible. It symbolizes the end of an era in Patna. His administrative experience will be a valuable asset in the Rajya Sabha for sure.

Elected unopposed as party president too. Clearly, he is still the supreme leader calling the shots. The move to Rajya Sabha might be a strategic one for national visibility. Let's see how this plays out in the coming months. 🤔
