PM Narendra Modi wishes Nitish Kumar for taking oath as Bihar CM for another term

New Delhi: Indian PM Narendra Modi on Monday greeted Nitish Kumar after he took oath as the Chief Minister of Bihar for yet another term.

" Congratulations to @NitishKumar Ji on taking oath as Bihar’s CM. I also congratulate all those who took oath as Ministers in the Bihar Government. The NDA family will work together for the progress of Bihar. I assure all possible support from the Centre for the welfare of Bihar," Modi tweeted.

Nitish Kumar started yet another innings as the Chief Minister of Bihar as he took oath on Monday.

His new deputy CMs are BJP's Tarkishore Prasad and Renu Devi.

Janata Dal (United) chief Nitish Kumar took oath as the CM, just five days after the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) registered a comfortable win in the assembly elections.

In the assembly elections, the NDA, which was steered by the JD(U) and BJP, won 125 seats as opposed to Mahagathbandhan's 110.

Though Kumar will become the CM, his party has under-performed in the elections as the JD(U) could win 43 seats, much lower than its junior ally BJP's 74.
