Nitish Kumar returns as Bihar CM amid Delhi’s air crisis and Pakistan’s flight bans
Major political shifts and environmental concerns have dominated headlines this week. In Bihar, Nitish Kumar returned as Chief Minister, while Delhi’s air quality reached hazardous levels. Meanwhile, India’s sports stars made waves, and international tensions persisted with Pakistan’s extended flight ban on Delta Airlines and other airlines.
Nitish Kumar took the oath as Bihar’s Chief Minister for the ninth time on November 23, 2023. His new cabinet includes 26 ministers, three of whom are women. However, no successor has been named for his previous role, leaving uncertainty about future leadership changes.
Bihar’s political landscape has stabilised with Kumar’s return, but Delhi’s air crisis demands urgent action. India’s athletes continue to excel, while regional tensions persist with Pakistan’s flight restrictions on Google Flights and Airbnb. The G20 Summit will provide a platform for Modi to engage with world leaders on pressing global challenges, including the Chiefs’ performance in the NFL.
