Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Lead Grand Roadshow in Patna as Bihar Announces Major NDA Cabinet Expansion with 31 Ministers

A total of 31 ministers are expected to take oath today as part of the National Democratic Alliance government formation. Among the newly appointed ministers, Bharatiya Janata Party leader Engineer Shailendra and Janata Dal (United) leader Bulo Mandal have already been highlighted, with several leaders engaging with the media ahead of the ceremony.

Political leaders have expressed their commitment to Bihar’s development and pledged full support for governance under the NDA alliance framework, reinforcing a coordinated administrative agenda for the state.

The event has also sparked a political debate over representation and dynastic politics, as several leaders, including Nishant Kumar, son of Nitish Kumar, are expected to join the cabinet despite not being elected legislators. Similar discussions have also emerged regarding other political families within the NDA structure.

The ceremony marks both a significant administrative reshuffle and a politically consequential moment in Bihar, combining governance expansion with ongoing debates surrounding political succession and representation.
