Nitish Kumar has become Bihar CM after a long fight and wait, he is now campaigning for a second term
“This is the time for change and to get the best out of it, we will have to wait.” These are the words of Nitish Kumar, the Chief minister of Bihar, who was talking to people during his Vikas Yatra in Bihar. He promises to effect tremendous positive change in the state, which until now has been suffering from poverty, lack of education and other administrative faults.
A product of JP Revolution, Nitish had to keep a devil’s patience before taking on the helm of affairs in Bihar. An Electronics engineer by profession, Nitish’s political career started when he joined the student revolution first in 1974 and then in 1977, when he was sent to jail under MISA. A strong and patient man, it took Nitish longer than his contemporaries Ram Vilas Paswan and Lalu Prasad Yadav, who had joined the politics during the same period. But in 1985, when Nitish first reached the Bihar Assembly, he never looked back. In 1988, he became the General Secretary of Janta Dal. In 1989, he became the member of Lok Sabha for the first time and the Union Agriculture Minister in 1990. He also became MP in 1996 and 1998 from Janta Dal, not just as a political leader but also as a leader. But it was only when he defeated his colleague and Dalit leader Ram Vilas Paswan and became the Railways Minister in the Vajpayee government, that his real abilities as a politician came in the limelight. For Nitish, who wanted to go up in the political ladder, this was a God-sent gift which he capitalised on to the fullest. When he became the CM of Bihar in 2005, it had begun a totally new chapter in his life.
