Bihar CM Forgets PM Modi's Name on Stage, Netizen Says 'Bihar Me Bahar…’

The video shows CM Kumar momentarily fumbling when referring to the Prime Minister, pausing awkwardly before shifting to a generic phrase. While the blunder may seem minor to some, political observers say such lapses, especially in the middle of a heated campaign season, rarely go unnoticed.

Nitish Kumar recently returned to the NDA

As the clip spread like wildfire, social media was flooded with reactions ranging from sarcastic jabs to concerned commentary. One user quipped, “Bihar me bahar hai… ya yaad dast hai?” while another wrote, “When alliance pressure gets real.”

The timing of the incident is also crucial, as Nitish Kumar recently returned to the NDA fold after switching alliances multiple times over the years. The forgetfulness, whether a genuine slip or an awkward moment under pressure, is being seen as symbolic by many.

With Bihar heading into elections later this year, every speech, slogan, and statement is under the scanner — and Nitish Kumar’s viral video has added unexpected fuel to the already intense political atmosphere.
