BJP to Choose New CM in Bihar if Nitish Kumar Goes to Rajya Sabha as Samrat The political landscape of Bihar is likely to undergo a significant change if Chief Minister Nitish Kumar decides to contest the upcoming Rajya Sabha elections. In such an event, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will have to choose a new leader for the state government. This has led to speculations about who could be the potential CM candidate from the BJP. One of the prominent names being discussed is that of Ravi Shankar Prasad, a senior leader and former Union Minister. Prasad has been a key figure in the BJP's Bihar unit and enjoys a good rapport with Nitish Kumar. Another contender for the post could be Mangal Pandey, a young and dynamic leader who has risen through the ranks to become one of the most influential voices within the party. However, some experts are also suggesting that Nityanand Rai, a Minister in the Bihar government, could be a dark horse candidate for the top job. Rai has been instrumental in implementing several key policies and projects under Nitish Kumar's leadership, and his proximity to the CM makes him a strong contender. The BJP is likely to take its time to deliberate on this issue before making any final decision. The party will want to ensure that whoever takes over as the new CM is acceptable to all factions within the organization and has the support of the people.#BJP #Bihar #Nitish_Kumar #Bharatiya_Janata_Party #Ravi_Shankar_Prasad #Mangal_Pandey #Nityanand_Rai
