Nitish wins facile trust vote after fiery debate
Highlights
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar comfortably won on Friday the crucial trust vote 131-108, after a vitriol-filled debate.
Patna: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar comfortably won on Friday the crucial trust vote 131-108, after a vitriol-filled debate.
The result of the floor test, held a day after he took office for the sixth time, jettisoning the RJD and embracing former ally BJP, was a foregone conclusion given the numerical superiority of the bloc supporting his government.
Four members in the 243-member house could not vote, reducing the total strength of the house during the trust vote to 239. With the effective strength of the House reduced to 239 during voting, Bihar's new government needed 120 votes.
Tejashwi Yadav mounted an all-out attack on him, calling his decision to join hands with the BJP "dhokha" (betrayal) with the people of Bihar.
