Nitish Kumar is NDA's CM face in Bihar Assembly polls: Giriraj Singh
Oct-08-2025

Union Minister and senior BJP leader Giriraj Singh confirmed that Nitish Kumar will be the NDA's Chief Ministerial candidate for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections. 

Speaking to reporters, Giriraj Singh said Nitish Kumar is NDA's face for the chief ministerial post in the coming assembly polls. Singh also ruled out any differences between NDA partners over seat-sharing arrangements for Bihar assembly polls and said talks are underway and the final formula would be finalised soon.

Union Minister took a jibe at the INDIA alliance, claiming that the opposition's Mahagathbandhan was a ‘divided house.’ He referred to a recent statement from Congress, clarifying that Tejashwi Yadav would be the RJD's chief ministerial candidate, not the Mahagathbandhan's. This, he claimed, had caused concern among RJD leaders, particularly Lalu Yadav. ‘The leadership of the Mahagathbandhan has not yet been decided. In contrast, NDA's policy, leadership, and intent are all set,’ Singh said.

Assembly elections in Bihar will be held in two phases on November 6 and 11 while the counting of votes will take place on November 14.
