Nitish Kumar will take oath as Bihar chief minister for a record tenth time today at Patna’s Gandhi Maidan. The ceremony will begin at 11 am and will be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union ministers and NDA chief ministers. Nitish resigned on Wednesday as the current assembly term ends on November 22. His party JD(U) won 85 seats, defying anti-incumbency for the fifth time. The NDA is now finalising cabinet posts, with both JD(U) and BJP interested in key portfolios like home and education. All eyes are on who will be deputy chief minister in the new government.
