Nitish Kumar will take oath as the Chief Minister of Bihar for a historic 10th time after he was elected as the leader of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) on Wednesday, following the alliance\u2019s landslide victory in the recent Assembly elections.<\/p>\n

This came after the JD(U) supremo was chosen as the leader of its legislature party during a meeting of newly elected MLAs at his residence at 1, Anne Marg. \u201cNitish Kumar has been chosen as JD(U)\u2019s legislature party leader by the newly elected MLAs,” state minister Shrawon Kumar told news agency PTI<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The swearing-in of the new government is scheduled for November 20, but leaders of the JD(U) and the BJP are reportedly yet to resolve their differences over key positions, with both parties negotiating over the Deputy Chief Minister posts and the Speaker\u2019s position. BJP\u2019s Samrat Choudhary and Vijay Sinha<\/a> are likely to be retained as deputy CMs.<\/p>\n

After the JD(U) meeting, Nitish Kumar, accompanied by Vijay Chaudhary and Sanjay Jha, reached for the NDA legislative party meeting in the State legislative assembly\u2019s Central Hall, where he was elected as the leader of the NDA.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the first time in the history of Bihar, and even in the history of India and the world, our Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, will take oath for the tenth time. Bihar has a very grand occasion to celebrate, welcoming the new government with new challenges. This phase will truly be a golden era for Bihar,” said BJP MP Rajiv Pratap Rudy.<\/p>\n
