Nitish Kumar, who runs the government with ease with the BJP, does something that the BJP becomes uncomfortable. The Chief Minister, who recently visited Buxar in Bihar, has done something similar. He has done such a thing without the opinion of the alliance’s colleagues that the opposition has started questioning this alliance and is not being able to answer the BJP.

Bihar Assembly has a total of 243 seats. The NDA is yet to include the party of Chirag Paswan, Jitan Ram Manjhi and Upendra Kushwaha besides JDU and BJP. Who will fight in how many seats, it is not yet decided, but the fat-matte is seen to be a consensus. And in this consent it is being said that JDU will remain in the role of elder brother in Bihar, that is, at least one seat will be fought more than BJP.

An equation has also surfaced, in which JDU can contest 102 seats, BJP in 102 seats, Chirag 20 seats and Manjhi-Kushwaha 10-10 seats. However, this is not the last equation nor is there any official figure, which has been released by any party. This is just political speculation.

Nothing is decided. Neither the number of seats nor the assembly will fight from where. In such a situation, any party has to struggle to field its candidate, because nothing is decided. But in the midst of this, Nitish Kumar has announced his first candidate and this is a matter of trouble for the BJP. Nitish Kumar has announced the name of former minister Santosh Nirala from Rajpur safe seat of Buxar and that too when it is not decided who will go to Rajpur seat.

Nitish Kumar has made this announcement when BJP leader and Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary was also present on the stage. Nitish Kumar was announcing the name of Santosh Nirala and Emperor Chaudhary was forced to listen to that announcement quietly.

The name of Santosh Nirala, who has announced the name of Nitish Kumar, has lost the election in 2020. He was defeated by the Congress candidate. In such a situation, Nitish has given a message to the NDA by betting on the loser candidate that the upper hand in the seat sharing will remain his own, even if the BJP says whatever he wants.

With this announcement of Nitish, there will definitely be discomfort in BJP, while the pressure to open its cards will also increase for the opposition. In such a situation, it is expected that after the voting of the Vice President elections on 9 September, all the decisions should be made about Bihar, which every Bihari is waiting for.

Social Security Pension Scheme: The Bihar government has made a big announcement. CM Nitish Kumar has now said to give a pension of Rs 1100 instead of Rs 400 every month to widow women, old people and disabled people under the Social Security Pension Scheme. All the beneficiaries will get pension at an increased rate from the month of July.

What did CM Nitish write in the post?

He himself has posted this on his X account. He said that “I am happy to say that under the Social Security Pension Scheme, widowed women, old people and disabled people will now get Rs 1100 pension instead of Rs 400 every month. All the beneficiaries will get pension from the month of July at the rate of increased rate. All the beneficiaries will ensure to send this amount on the 10th of the month. This will help a lot to 1 crore 9 lakh 69 thousand 255 beneficiaries.”

All the beneficiaries will get pension from the month of July at an increased rate. This amount in the account of all the beneficiaries is 10 of the month…

CM Nitish has also said that old people are precious part of the society and it is our top priority to ensure their respectable living. The state government will be constantly trying in this direction.

CM Nitish’s gift before election

Before the election, this announcement of CM Nitish can prove to be very effective for the government in Bihar elections. Because the opposition was often attacked by Sarakar about these schemes, raising the issue of common people. Now the government has reduced the amount more than doubled under the Social Security Pension Scheme, which will prove to be a large extent for the poor and helpless sections.
