INDIA Bloc Extends Deputy PM Offer To Nitish Kumar?: Sources

As the Lok Sabha election results for 2024 approach the halfway mark, neither the BJP nor the INDIA bloc has secured a decisive victory, causing significant upheaval across political circles.

This uncertainty has particularly invigorated parties that have fared well within alliances. Nitish Kumar emerges once again as a pivotal figure, potentially playing the role of kingmaker in national politics. Reports suggest that the Congress party has reached out to him, offering the position of deputy prime minister.

Nitish Kumar’s potential elevation to the role of Deputy PM comes amidst his political journey marked by multiple switches in allegiance. Initially aligned with the INDIA bloc, he transitioned to the BJP ahead of the recent Lok Sabha elections, marking his fourth switch since 2015.

Despite setbacks, including losing his status as the largest party in Bihar since 2015, Kumar has retained his position as chief minister of the state. His political maneuvering has often been facilitated by the rivalry between the RJD and BJP, ensuring his continued relevance on the political stage.
