Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar attempted to touch Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s feet at Patna airport after Modi’s visit for Kumar’s swearing-in ceremony. In a viral video, Kumar approached Modi but was stopped as the Prime Minister held his shoulders and clasped his hands.

Despite a strong performance by the BJP in recent elections, Kumar retained his position, with both leaders noted for their governance and women’s empowerment appeals.
