Brief By Newsbrief / 5:10 PM on 18 Apr 2026

The Bihar Assembly’s second session is scheduled to commence on April 24, 2026, at 11 am, marking a significant political moment as Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary prepares to enter the House for the first time in his new role. The session follows his swearing-in on April 15 after Nitish Kumar stepped down. Deputy Chief Ministers Vijay Choudhary and Vijendra Yadav will also be present during the proceedings.

Key agenda items include the election of the Speaker and the crucial floor test, where the new government must prove its majority as per constitutional requirements. With the NDA commanding a strong position—holding around 201–202 seats in the 243-member Assembly—the government is expected to pass the trust vote comfortably. The session will set the tone for the new administration’s legislative priorities and governance approach in the coming months.
