Bihar Chief Minister and Janata Dal United (JDU) chief Nitish Kumar finds himself at the center of attention as the opposition INDIA alliance defies exit polls and appears poised to win 231 seats, just 31 short of the required majority to form the government. Nitish Kumar’s reputation for switching alliances has earned him the nickname ‘Paltu Kumar’, drawing widespread scrutiny amidst the closely contested election results.
According to trends released by the Election Commission, the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is leading on 294 seats, while the INDIA bloc maintains a narrow lead with 231 seats.
Reports have emerged suggesting that Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) patriarch Sharad Pawar has reached out to Nitish Kumar and Chandrababu Naidu in an attempt to persuade them to switch allegiances to the INDIA alliance. Kumar’s JDU is currently leading on 15 seats in Bihar, while Naidu’s Telugu Desam Party (TDP) has secured 16 seats in Andhra Pradesh.
The potential addition of 31 seats from Nitish Kumar and Chandrababu Naidu could significantly alter the balance of power in favor of the opposition. Although both the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Sharad Pawar have denied the reports of alliance negotiations, social media platforms are buzzing with memes and discussions surrounding Nitish Kumar’s political maneuvers.
Here are some funny memes of Nitish Kumar:

As Prime Minister Narendra Modi appears poised for a third term, all eyes remain on Nitish Kumar as the political landscape continues to evolve amidst the ongoing election drama.
