Bihar Politics: Janata Dal (United) president Nitish Kumar on Sunday was sworn-in as the Chief Minister of Bihar for a record ninth time following a dramatic volte-face, ditching the Mahagathbandhan and the opposition bloc INDIA and forming a new government with the BJP, which he had dumped less than 18 months ago.
Kumar was sworn in by Bihar Governor Rajendra Arlekar at Raj Bhavan in the presence of senior leaders including BJP national president J P Nadda, hours after he resigned from the post, saying “things were not working well” for him in the Grand Alliance and the opposition bloc.
BJP leaders — Samrat Choudhary and former Speaker Vijay Kumar Sinha- were among those who took oath of office. The two are named as Deputy Chief Ministers.

Bihar Politics LIVE: On Nitish Kumar-led JD(U) joining NDA, Congress leader Pawan Khera says, “Someone who has to leave has to say something or the other. It is not easy to live with one’s conscience after taking such a step. If you are doing this for the 9th time, the conscience probably left you long back. He can say whatever he wants…Nitish Kumar could have had his name registered in history in a good manner but think about what situation he has brought himself in. He is becoming a subject of mockery in every household. Now, it is his desire if he wants to be a subject of mockery.”
