Taking to X, Chirag said, "After the Bihar Assembly Election results today, met with the Honorable Chief Minister of Bihar Shri Nitish Kumar Ji and extended hearty congratulations and best wishes to him for the NDA's resounding majority."

Chirag Paswan told reporters that Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had led the entire campaign with remarkable strength. Paswan noted that the Opposition had repeatedly made personal attacks on Kumar, including comments about his health, but Kumar had demonstrated that the more he was attacked, the stronger he emerged.

He said, as per ANI, "When the so-called youth leaders of Bihar remained in their rooms because of inclement weather and gave speeches on their phones, my CM was going out for campaigning. He showed his capability. Opposition tried to build false narratives, made personal comments on my PM but it made our alliance even stronger. Bihar and Biharis are known for dignity, for their culture. Biharis have never accepted such crude language..."
