Funny Memes Explain Nitish Kumar's Situation As He Becomes Kingmaker

After an unpredictable series of political maneuvers, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar earned the moniker 'Phaltu Ram'. Just four months ago, he abandoned the 'Mahagathbandhan' and returned to the NDA, taking oath as the Bihar CM for the ninth time.

With the BJP falling short of a majority in the Lok Sabha polls, Kumar finds himself as a kingmaker, alongside TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu. The JDU, in alliance with the BJP, secured 12 seats, amounting to 24 seats collectively in Bihar.

Reports suggest that opposition parties have extended an offer to Nitish Kumar, proposing the position of Deputy Prime Minister. This development has sparked a flurry of memes among netizens, speculating on Kumar's next move, as the INDIA bloc gears up to challenge the Modi wave. Without actively seeking the spotlight, Kumar has emerged as the central figure, leaving observers undecided on which meme best encapsulates the situation.

References range from SRK's iconic 'palat' moment in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1998), where anticipation hangs in the air akin to Raj awaiting Simran's response, to more literal depictions, like scenes from Welcome (2007), where Mallika Sherawat's character juggles affection between Majnu Bhai and Don Uday Shetty.

Meanwhile, DP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu confirmed his party's allegiance to the NDA, announcing his attendance at the upcoming National Democratic Alliance meeting in New Delhi. Janasena party's chief Pawan Kalyan will also be present, following the alliance's victories in both Assembly and Lok Sabha polls in Andhra Pradesh. "We are firmly in the NDA. I will be attending the NDA meeting. Any further developments will be duly communicated," Naidu stated during a press conference regarding his Delhi visit.

On the other hand, leaders from the INDIA bloc are scheduled to convene at Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge's residence to chart out a strategy for forming the government, deliberating on whether to engage with former allies Nitish Kumar and N Chandrababu Naidu.
