On Wednesday, a day after huge political turmoil in the state, Nitish Kumar took the oath as the Chief Minister of Bihar for the 8th time.
Rashtriya Janta Dal (RJD) leader Tejaswini Yadav took the oath as the deputy Chief Minister.
- This came just a day after he resigned from the post of CM of the Janata Dal-United (JD-U) with the Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) and announced to form a new "Grand Alliance" (Mahagathbandgan) which includes Tejawasi Yadav's RJD and other opposition parties.
Taking a sly dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Kumar said "Those who came to power in 2014, will they be victorious in 2024? I would like all (opposition) to be united for 2024. I am not a contender for any such post (on PM post),".
