Nitish Kumar understands the delicacy of time very well. They also understand the needs very well – and take decisions according to the needs. His every decision of political alliance is absolutely right according to the time.
Along with himself, Nitish Kumar has a good understanding of the needs of others as well, that is why he fits into every slot of Bihar. Just as political parties forget the past and embrace Nitish Kumar, the public too is keeping their heads in their sights.
If the people of Bihar were not with Nitish Kumar, how could his alliance win the elections? Ever since he became the Chief Minister of Bihar, whichever alliance he contested the elections with, it won.
After all, why does that alliance, which does not have Nitish Kumar in it, lose in Bihar assembly elections? The results of all the elections held since 2005 are examples. Even after leaving BJP in 2013, he won the elections in 2015 as the leader of the Grand Alliance. After leaving the Grand Alliance in 2017, he was successful in winning the elections as the leader of NDA in 2020.
Nitish Kumar has such a specialty that in the last decade, BJP and Lalu Yadav’s party RJD have always needed him. He has just gone with BJP, but Rashtriya Janata Dal still needs him badly.
Nitish Kumar may face losses by going with BJP, but there are also many benefits. Right now everyone is assuming that this is the last instance of Nitish Kumar changing sides, but still no one can guarantee that if he gets a chance in the future, he will miss it.
1. Working with BJP may be difficult now
Talking about the current assembly, Nitish Kumar has taken oath as the Chief Minister for the third time. And 9 times till now. There is a record in Bihar. After the 2020 election results came out, then in 2022 after leaving the NDA and joining the Grand Alliance – and now again in 2024 as the NDA Chief Minister.
Compared to 2020, it seems very difficult to see a new innings with BJP. It was believed that even then it was difficult for Nitish Kumar to work with BJP, but this time it seems to be more difficult.
Even then BJP had appointed two Deputy CMs on either side of Nitish Kumar, but this time there are two leaders who have always been seen adopting an aggressive stance against Nitish Kumar.
Nitish Kumar was facing difficulty in taking government decisions even after becoming the Chief Minister after the last elections, but now it seems that every task will become difficult – but this situation will come after the general elections are over. There are other things to worry about right now, but in this case everything seems to be fine.
2. The distribution of seats is also not going to be the same as before.
BJP and JDU contested the 2019 Lok Sabha elections on 17 seats each. For many days before the elections, efforts were made to exert pressure from both sides. The big question would be who would play the role of elder brother? The issue did not end until Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s approval was received – and BJP leader Amit Shah’s public announcement of Nitish Kumar being the leader of the NDA.
This time, even when it comes to the distribution of Lok Sabha seats, BJP will run its own course, and the distribution is certainly not going to be equal – the basis for the distribution of 2024 Lok Sabha seats can be the results of the 2020 assembly elections, and that There doesn’t seem to be much scope.
BJP will not only keep more seats in its share, apart from Nitish Kumar there are many contenders too. Not only Chirag Paswan and Pashupati Kumar Paras, apart from Jitan Ram Manjhi, Upendra Kushwaha will also stake claim – and even if this is possible, everyone’s share will be fulfilled from Nitish Kumar’s quota.
3. BJP has created a situation like Maharashtra in Bihar also.
On the face of it, the role seems to have changed a bit in the new innings of Nitish Kumar. Samrat Chaudhary has replaced Tejashwi Yadav, but it should be assumed that his role will be different. To a large extent, the system should be considered like that of Maharashtra.
The role of Samrat Choudhary in Nitish Kumar’s cabinet should also be assumed to be similar to that of Maharashtra Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis – everyone knows the temperament of the BJP leadership.
4. Nitish Kumar can hope for a better future
Nitish Kumar’s position may be better with BJP than with INDIA block. He is going to remain the Chief Minister till 2025, provided the kindness of BJP leadership continues even after the Lok Sabha elections. Right now there is political compulsion, even of BJP. She would not like to disturb anything till the general elections take place.
Nitish Kumar must be hopeful that by coming together with BJP, he will at least be able to have a respectable farewell from Bihar. If we look at the power politics, then like pension in old age, one can also get a place in a Raj Bhavan.
5. Is this Nitish Kumar’s last innings as Chief Minister?
This is the biggest question – because no one knows if Nitish Kumar has any hidden scheme. The way Nitish Kumar is currently adopting a soft stance against the Lalu family, it is clear that he does not want to close the scope of his comeback. RJD’s status will also be known after the Lok Sabha elections.
The Lalu family may keep calling Nitish Kumar Paltu Ram when they are not together, but after some time, such a situation arises that both of them hug. Who can claim in the future that if an opportunity arises for a handshake, they will not allow it to happen?
Anyway, the post of Chief Minister seems certain for Nitish Kumar only till 2025, but who knows. He may or may not be the Chanakya of Bihar politics, but Nitish Kumar is definitely there. And there is no match to Nitish Kumar’s skill of changing sides.
