Shreyasi Singh, the BJP MLA from Jamui, was sworn in as a minister in Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s cabinet. Singh, who entered electoral politics in 2020, secured a decisive win in the recently concluded Bihar Assembly elections, defeating RJD candidate Shamshad Alam by over 54,000 votes.

With the NDA returning to power in Bihar, Nitish Kumar took oath as chief minister for a record tenth term. The alliance achieved a sweeping victory, winning 202 of the 243 Assembly seats. The BJP emerged as the single largest party with 89 seats, closely trailed by the JD(U) with 85.

An accomplished athlete and Arjuna Award-winning shooter, Singh comes from a prominent political family.

Her latest, even bigger victory has further strengthened the BJP’s foothold in Jamui.
