CM Nitish Kumar skips Eid namaz at Patna's Gandhi Maidan after 2 decades, son Nishant Kumar steps in

Bihar CM Nitish Kumar broke a two-decade tradition by skipping the Eid-ul-Fitr congregation at Patna's Gandhi Maidan, sending his son Nishant Kumar in his place. This move, occurring amidst speculation about Nitish's political future and potential Rajya Sabha transition, is seen by observers as a calculated step to introduce Nishant to public life and succession planning within the JD(U).
