The Bihar government is preparing for its first cabinet expansion under Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary, with 31 ministers expected to be sworn in today. Among them is Nishant Kumar, the son of former Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, who has recently entered politics with the Janata Dal (United). This expansion is significant as it reflects the desires of JDU leaders and workers to see Nishant in a government role, despite his initial reluctance to accept a position. The cabinet will also include representatives from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Lok Janshakti Party (LJP), and Hindustani Awam Morcha (Secular). The swearing-in ceremony will take place at Gandhi Maidan in Patna, attended by prominent leaders including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and BJP President Nitin Nabin. Shah has already arrived in Patna and is meeting with party leaders ahead of the event.
