Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s party JDU gained a lot in Bihar Assembly elections (2025). The party directly reached 85 seats from 43 seats. Now on one hand the party has emerged in a strong position and on the other hand planning has started for Nitish Kumar’s son Nishant Kumar. His entry in JDU is almost certain.

There was a demand even before the elections to bring Nishant into the party. Posters were put up by the workers. Many times the workers had demanded that Nishant be brought into the party, because in view of Nitish Kumar’s health, the responsibility of managing the party should now be given to Nishant. Now it is believed that the command of JDU may go into the hands of Nishant.

After Nitish there is no one better than Nishant

A senior leader of JDU and who is very close to Nitish Kumar said that the main vote bank of the party is backward and extremely backward. In such a situation, after Nitish Kumar, there can be no one better than Nishant Kumar. Only he can handle the party. After the elections are over, Nishant is now being put forward for further politics. Nishant also wishes to become active in the politics of Bihar. It cannot be said when he will come, but it is expected that he will come very soon. Big leaders and advisors close to Nitish Kumar are also trying to convince Nitish Kumar about this.

What do political experts say?

Amidst all the discussions and statements, Dhirendra Kumar, who understands the politics of Bihar, said, “Nitish Kumar is now in the last stages of politics. In such a situation, there should be one face to handle the party and no one is better than Nishant Kumar. Because if we look at the history of all the regional parties, the successor has been from the family only. It is because of the family that the party moves forward. Because the arrival of someone else again affects the vote bank.”

He further said, “Nitish Kumar did backward and extremely backward politics from the beginning. In such a situation, unless someone from his family comes forward to consolidate the votes of the backward community, the party’s vote bank will not remain stable. This is the reason why Nishant Kumar has now come into the limelight. Nitish Kumar is a seasoned player of politics. In such a situation, he also understands this very well. In such a situation, Nishant can join JDU at any time.”

What are the leaders saying about Nishant?

Recently, JDU’s acting national president and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Jha had said that the party people want Nishant Kumar to work for the party. On the other hand, BJP leader Syed Shahnawaz Hussain had said that this is a very good and happy thing.

Claim to take membership after Kharmas

On the other hand, on Thursday (December 11, 2025), JDU workers also made a big revelation. Said that membership campaign is currently being run by the party. The target is to make two crore members, with Nishant Kumar in the leading role. After Kharmas, Nishant Kumar himself will take membership of the party.

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s son Nishant Kumar on Thursday (November 20) thanked the people of the state for the “historic mandate” and credited women voters in particular for their “special participation”, but dodged questions related to his political debut.

His father took oath as Chief Minister for the record 10th time on Thursday (20 November). In a brief conversation with journalists including ‘PTI Video’ at the swearing-in ceremony held at Gandhi Maidan, Nishant said, “Salute and best wishes to the people of Bihar. I thank and congratulate from the bottom of my heart. The way people worked, the way women voted, their special participation is very important for Bihar.”

What did Nishant say on the question of coming into politics?

During this time, when he was asked when he would enter politics, Nishant smiled and left from there. Nishant has never contested any election and unlike the heirs of many political families, he has so far stayed away from public life. Nishant’s political debut was also discussed a lot in this election.

His father and Janata Dal United (JDU) chief Nitish Kumar took oath as the Chief Minister of Bihar for the 10th time. Nitish held the reins of Bihar for almost two decades and has created a special women vote bank.

BJP made a strong comeback in the elections

The National Democratic Alliance (NDA), an alliance of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), JDU, LJP (Ram Vilas) and two other parties, returned to power by winning 202 seats in the 243-member assembly.

BJP emerged as the largest party with 89 seats. After this, JDU got 85 seats, while LJP (Ram Vilas) got 19, Hindustani Awami Morcha got five and Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLMO) got four seats.

Women voted enthusiastically

According to Election Commission data, women voted more than men. The voting percentage of women was more than 71 percent, while among men it was 62.9 percent. In seven districts, women voted 14 percentage points more and in 10 other districts this difference was more than 10 points. National Democratic Alliance (NDA) leaders cited this as the reason for the alliance’s decisive advance.

Senior NDA officials attributed the “women mandate” to Nitish’s welfare rule. This included everything from the 2016 prohibition policy (which received widespread support from women affected by alcohol-induced domestic violence) to large-scale economic assistance schemes given before the elections.

The previous NDA government had given Rs 10,000 each to over 1.21 crore ‘Jeevika Didis’ to start micro businesses and had promised additional assistance of up to Rs 2 lakh for their ventures.

Benefit from ‘Jeevika Didi’ project

The government was running the World Bank-assisted project ‘JEEVIKA’ through an autonomous body, Bihar Rural Livelihood Promotion Society (BRLPS), which aims at social and economic empowerment of the rural poor. The women associated with this project are called ‘Jeevika Didi’.

In a state that often grapples with caste divisions, JDU leaders said women had emerged as a voter category that overcame many obstacles. They became the demographic group that reshaped the election results and strengthened the foundation for Nitish Kumar’s return to power.

With the swearing in of the new NDA government in Bihar, it has become clear which party has got the maximum number of ministerial posts in comparison to its seats. BJP and JD(U) are the largest parties in the NDA alliance which returned to power with 202 seats, but there seems to be an interesting balance between the two in the distribution of ministerial posts. Nitish Kumar took oath as Chief Minister for the 10th time, while BJP’s Samrat Chaudhary and Vijay Sinha became Deputy Chief Ministers.

How many seats does which party have?
NDA has a total of 202 seats in the new assembly, in which BJP is the largest party with 89 seats. On the other hand, JDU has 85 seats. Apart from these, LJP (Ram Vilas) has 19 seats, HAM has 5 and RLM has 4 seats.

NDA seat distribution in Bihar elections 2025
In the Bihar Assembly elections 2025, NDA had contested all 243 seats. In this alliance, BJP and JDU were given equal number of 101-101 seats. Apart from these, LJP (Ram Vilas) got 29 seats, HAM (HAM) got 6 seats and Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM) also got 6 seats.

How many ministerial posts have come to JDU’s account?
Talking about ministerial posts, JDU has got a total of nine posts including the Chief Minister. Apart from Nitish Kumar, JDU’s Vijay Kumar Chaudhary, Vijendra Yadav, Shravan Kumar, Leshi Singh, Ashok Chaudhary, Madan Sahni, Sunil Kumar and Mohammad Jama Khan have been made ministers. JDU has been given a balanced and adequate representation as per its proportion of seats.

Most ministers from BJP quota?
BJP has got two Deputy Chief Ministers and apart from this, twelve more leaders have been made ministers. These include Mangal Pandey, Dilip Jaiswal, Nitin Naveen, Ramkripal Yadav, Sanjay Singh Tiger, Arun Shankar Prasad, Surendra Mehta, Narayan Prasad, Rama Nishad, Lakhendra Roshan, Shreyasi Singh and Pramod Kumar. In this way, BJP got a total of 14 ministerial posts, which is more than JDU in number, but considering BJP’s seat count (89), its minister per seat ratio is slightly less than JDU.

Even small parties are in trouble
LJP (Ram Vilas) has secured two ministerial posts despite only 19 seats, which is considered a strong bargain compared to its size. Jitan Ram Manjhi’s party HAM has five seats and has got one ministerial post, which is considered a good representation for a small party. Similarly, RLM has four seats and has also got a ministerial post.

Chief Ministers of many states including PM Modi were present at the swearing in.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, BJP President JP Nadda were present in the swearing-in. Apart from this, Chandrababu Naidu of Andhra Pradesh, Rekha Gupta of Delhi, Naib Singh Saini of Haryana, Himanta Biswa Sarma of Assam and Nephew Rio of Nagaland were also present.

Nitish Kumar took oath as the Chief Minister of Bihar at Gandhi Maidan in Patna on Thursday (20 November). Along with Nitish Kumar, who became the Chief Minister for the 10th time, 26 ministers also took the oath of office and secrecy. This time many new faces have been included in the cabinet, in which a person who did not contest in this election has also been made a minister, his name is Deepak Prakash.

You may not know Deepak Prakash directly, but everyone knows his father very well. Deepak Prakash is the son of prominent leader of Bihar Upendra Kushwaha. Upendra Kushwaha is known for his ‘Lav-Kush’ equation, which links the OBC Kurmi and OBC Kushwaha (Koeri) groups together. These classes have a good population in Bihar and Kushwaha is one of the most influential leaders of this community.

Upendra Kushwaha gave a chance to his son

Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM), as an ally of NDA, won four out of six seats in this election. Despite this, Upendra Kushwaha left his MLAs for the post of minister and gave the opportunity to his son Deepak Prakash, who is currently not a member of any House. He will have to become a member of the Legislative Council or Assembly within the next six months.

On which seats did RLM win?

RLM won Bajpatti, Madhubani, Sasaram and Dinara seats. In Bajpatti, Rameshwar Kumar Mahato won by 3395 votes, in Madhubani, Madhav Anand won by 20,552 votes, in Sasaram, Upendra Kushwaha’s wife Snehlata won by a margin of more than 25 thousand votes and in Dinara, Alo Kumar Singh won by 10,834 votes.

Laddus in both hands of Upendra Kushwaha

Rajya Sabha MP Upendra Kushwaha formed the new party on 20 February 2023. RLM, contesting assembly elections for the first time, has got a ministerial post in Nitish cabinet. Upendra Kushwaha has established his son Deepak Prakash on the political stage by making him a minister, while his wife will remain active with her victory in the assembly.
