Bihar assembly elections: Has Nitish Kumar lost his bargaining power?

IndiaTimes Friday, 28 February 2025
Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar is under opposition fire over the recent cabinet expansion. Critics argue that Nitish Kumar's dominance in Bihar's politics is waning as BJP takes a firmer grip, evident from the fact that all new ministers were from the BJP. Opposition leaders claim the BJP is using Nitish as a mask, while the JD(U) and BJP firmly rebut these allegations.
