Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Thursday reshuffled the departments of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ministers in the state and allocated new portfolios to the new ministers. Seven BJP MLAs including Sanjay Saraogi, Sunil Kumar, Jibesh Mishra, Motilal Prasad, Krishan Kumar Mantoo, Raju Kumar Singh and Vijay Kumar Mandal took oath as cabinet ministers on Wednesday. 

At a ceremony held in the Raj Bhavan, Governor Arif Mohammad Khan administered the oath of office to the new inductees who raised the strength of the Cabinet to 36.

Two ministries, Road Construction and Art Culture Department, were taken away from Deputy CM Vijay Sinha. Road construction was given to Nitin Naveen while yesterday culture was given to new minister Motilal Prasad. Nitin Naveen earlier had Urban Development, now this ministry has been given to the new minister Jivesh Mishra. Nitin Naveen has been given Road Construction. 

Earlier, Bihar BJP president Dilip Jaiswal resigned from the Cabinet to conform with his party's policy of 'one person, one post'. Jaiswal, who held the crucial Revenue and Land Reform portfolio, was inducted into the cabinet in January last year after the BJP returned to power in the state with CM Nitish Kumar joining the NDA.
The cabinet expansion was done two days before the commencement of the Bihar Budget Session on February 28.
