Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has been strategically targeting opposition leader Rabri Devi, emphasizing her ascension to the Chief Minister’s position in 1997 following her husband Lalu Prasad’s incarceration. Kumar’s focus on Rabri Devi is part of his efforts to garner support from women voters and showcase a contrast between the alleged nepotism within the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and his administration’s women-centric development initiatives as the state gears up for elections. Kumar’s political maneuvering aims to position himself as a champion of women’s empowerment and governance, appealing to the electorate’s sentiments. The Chief Minister’s repeated references to Rabri Devi’s past leadership role are strategic in shaping the narrative around political dynasties and promoting his own agenda of inclusive and progressive governance. As the political landscape in Bihar evolves in the lead-up to the elections, Kumar’s targeted approach towards Rabri Devi underscores the significance of women voters and their role in shaping the state’s future.
