Bihar's New Cabinet: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar allocated portfolios to the 26 Ministers in his new Cabinet. The Council of Ministers includes representatives from the Janata Dal (United), Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Hindustani Awam Morcha (HAM), Lok Janshakti Party-Ram Vilas, and the Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM).

This development comes just a day after Nitish Kumar took oath as the Bihar CM for the 10th time. He has also retained the General Administration, Election Monitoring, and several other important departments. However, in a major change, the crucial Home Department, previously held by Nitish Kumar for years, has been given to the BJP's Samrat Choudhary. He had earlier handled the Finance and Commercial Tax departments.
