BJP Chief Nitin Nabin Resigns As Bankipur MLA, Eyes Bigger Role In Bihar

BJP national President Nitin Nabin on Monday announced his resignation as the elected Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) from Bankipur constituency in Bihar, marking the end of a two-decade-long electoral association with the seat.

In a detailed post on X, Nabin addressed party workers and the people of Bihar, reflecting on his political journey and expressing gratitude for their continued support.

Reflecting on his political journey, Nabin said: “All my family members and party worker comrades from Bankipur and Bihar, After the sudden demise of my father in January 2006, the party gave me the opportunity to contest the by-election from Patna West, and on April 27, 2006, I was elected for the first time from the Patna West constituency, marking the beginning of my social and political life.”

He added: “Over the past 20 years, I have made continuous efforts to nurture, beautify, and advance this constituency – built by my father, the late Nawin Kishore Prasad Sinha – with a familial spirit on the platform of development. I have always worked with dedication for the development of my area and Bihar. As a result, the god-like people here have blessed me with the fortune of service by electing me as their representative to the House for five consecutive terms. Whether inside the House or outside, I have used both platforms to raise the voice of my area and the people of Bihar and to find ways to resolve their problems.”

Speaking about his experience, he said: “As a member of the Bihar Legislative Assembly, I had the opportunity to learn a great deal from many senior MLAs on both the ruling side and the opposition. I have resolved many important issues in my area based on suggestions from the people and workers.”

Resignation And Future Commitment

“Under the leadership of the Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji and the Honourable Chief Minister Shri Nitish Kumar ji, when the party gave me the opportunity to serve as a minister in the Bihar government, I succeeded in implementing several key decisions, policies, and schemes. For this, I express my gratitude to the Honourable Chief Minister ji,” he added.

Announcing his resignation, Nabin said: “Today, I am resigning from my position as the elected member from the Bankipur constituency of the Bihar Legislative Assembly.”

He said he would continue working for Bihar in his new role and remain committed to development goals, including the vision of a developed India and Bihar by 2047. He also extended his salutations to Bankipur.

Nabin’s exit marks a significant political shift in Bankipur, where he served as a five-time MLA. He was appointed BJP National President on January 20, succeeding Union Minister JP Nadda.
