Janata Dal-United leader Nitish Kumar on Monday thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other political leaders for their best wishes on his taking oath as Chief Minister on Monday for fourth consecutive time.

"Thanks to Prime Minister Narendra Modiji for the best wishes," Bihar Chief Minister said in a tweet.

He also thanked Union Ministers Rajnath Singh, Dr Harsh Vardhan, Hardeep Singh Puri, Nirmala Sitharaman and Ravi Shankar Prasad and BJP leaders JP Nadda, BL Santhosh, Sushil Kumar Modi, Jyotiraditya Scindia and Poonam Mahajan for their wishes.

The JD-U leader took oath as the Chief Minister of Bihar for the fourth straight term on Monday afternoon.
