Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar virtually attended a skill convocation ceremony for ITI toppers from across the country on Saturday, where Prime Minister Narendra Modi presented certificates to the students under the Kaushal Deekshant Samaroh 2025 initiative. The chief minister, however, drew attention after he sat with folded hands for what seemed like a long time, nearly a minute, while another leader read out details of the programme. He slightly shook his hands as he kept them folded, and looked sideways for a moment. He also smiled at one point. Kumar, who also heads the Janata Dal (United), or JD(U), has faced questions from the Opposition over his health. They have often attacked him over what they called unstable and erratic behaviour in public of late, and raised concerns on his ability to run the state.
