No such thing as over-acting or under-acting: Naseeruddin Shah

Bihar’s political landscape is witnessing a major shift as veteran leader Nitish Kumar prepares to move to the Rajya Sabha, ending his long tenure as Chief Minister. The development has cleared the path for his son Nishant Kumar to formally enter politics through the Janata Dal (United). During a high-level meeting at the Chief Minister’s residence in Patna, party leaders unanimously backed Nishant’s entry into the organisation. He is expected to travel across Bihar and engage directly with party workers at the grassroots level. The move is being viewed as a generational transition that could redefine leadership within the JD(U). However, the sudden shift has also sparked protests among sections of party workers who believe Nitish Kumar should continue to lead Bihar. As political activity intensifies in Patna, all eyes are now on Nishant Kumar and whether he can transform a powerful political legacy into a new leadership journey for the party.
