Nitish Kumar-led NDA Government Wins Bihar Floor Test

The victory in the trust vote solidifies Nitish Kumar's position as Chief Minister amid political shifts and opposition challenges.

  • Nitish Kumar's coalition with the BJP successfully passed a motion of confidence in the Bihar Assembly, securing the government's position.
  • The opposition, led by the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and Congress, staged a walkout from the assembly following the announcement of the vote results.
  • Awadh Bihari Choudhary, an RJD leader and the Bihar Assembly Speaker, was removed from his position immediately after the trust vote.
  • The need for a trust vote arose after Nitish Kumar resigned from the Congress-led Mahagathbandhan alliance and formed a new government with the BJP.
  • The NDA government, including JD(U), BJP, and allies, holds a majority with 128 MLAs in the 243-member Bihar Assembly.
