Nitish Kumar earlier on August 9 officially announced his exit from the NDA and joined hands with RJD, Congress and the Left. He submitted his resignation to Governor Phagu Chauhan to stake a claim to form a new government with the help of 164 MLAs.

He took oath on August 10 as the Chief Minister of Bihar for the 8th time. RJD de-facto head and Lalu Prasad Yadav's son Tejashwi Yadav took the oath as the Deputy Chief Minister.
