Patna. CM Nitish Kumar can expand his cabinet in Bihar. According to media reports, the budget session of Bihar Legislature is going to start from February 28. Assembly elections are due in Bihar in November this year. In such a situation, this will be the final budget of this term of Nitish Kumar’s government. According to reports, CM Nitish Kumar will expand the cabinet before the budget session of Bihar Legislature. 3 faces of BJP can get a place in this. According to reports, the BJP has also fixed the list of ministers of its quota. There is also news of BJP national president JP Nadda and Nitish Kumar to be agreed on cabinet expansion and faces.
CM Nitish Kumar had earlier expanded the cabinet in March 2024. After this expansion, there were 30 ministers including Deputy CM Vijay Sinha and Samrat Chaudhary in Nitish Kumar’s government. Among them, BJP has 15 ministers. Whereas, JDU has 13 ministers including Nitish Kumar. 1 and 1 independents from Jitan Ram Manjhi’s Hum Party also made Nitish Kumar a minister. In such a situation, 6 more ministers can be included in the Nitish government. If 3 new ministers of BJP are formed, then 2-3 MLAs from JDU will be able to become ministers. BJP has 80 MLAs in Bihar and 44 JDU. At the same time, 4 MLAs of Jitan Ram Manjhi’s party are also included in the NDA government.
It is believed that along with creating some new ministers, Nitish Kumar can also change some faces of his cabinet. There is talk of Bihar BJP state president Dilip Jaiswal leaving the Minister. At the same time, there is also talk of giving ministers to Naval Kishore Yadav, Anil Sharma and Jeevesh Kumar in the Nitish Kumar government. Kavita Devi’s name is also going on for the post of minister. However, if Nitish Kumar decides the cabinet expansion, only then will you know who gets this post.
