Amid heightened criticism and attacks from the opposition on the deteriorating law and order situation in the state, Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar has come up with a scheme to woo women voters.

The Bihar government has announced a 35% reservation for women candidates who are original residents of the state in all direct recruitment for government services and all types of posts.

Earlier order modified

The move is a tweak of the July 2016 order, where 35 per cent reservation in state government jobs was open to all women. Women have traditionally supported Nitish Kumar, especially his decision of “Sharabbandi” or alcohol ban. The latest decision is meant to cement the support of this vote bank further ahead of this year’s assembly elections.

Recent poll results from Madhya Pradesh to Maharashtra have also shown that women-centric schemes announced by incumbent governments have paid rich dividends.

Youth Commission to generate employment opportunities for Bihar’s youngsters

“I am happy to inform that in order to provide maximum employment opportunities to the youth of Bihar, train them and empower and enable them, the State Government has decided to set up Bihar Youth Commission and today the Cabinet has approved the constitution of Bihar Youth Commission,” Nitish Kumar posted on social media.

मुझे यह बताते हुए प्रसन्नता हो रही है कि बिहार के युवाओं को अधिक से अधिक रोजगार के अवसर उपलब्ध कराने, उन्हें प्रशिक्षित करने तथा सशक्त और सक्षम बनाने के उद्देश्य से राज्य सरकार ने बिहार युवा आयोग के गठन का निर्णय लिया है और आज कैबिनेट द्वारा बिहार युवा आयोग के गठन की मंजूरी भी दे…— Nitish Kumar (@NitishKumar) July 8, 2025

The commission, as per the Bihar government, will advise it on generating opportunities for youngsters and will coordinate with departments to ensure better education and employment for the youth.

The Bihar Youth Commission will have a chairperson, two vice-presidents, and seven members. The commission will work with the private sector too to ensure opportunities for the Bihari youth, as well as those studying outside the state.

Keeping with his pet theme of alcohol ban, Nitish Kumar posted on X that the commission will also work towards drug prevention.

“It will also be an important task to prepare a programme for prevention of alcohol and other drugs that promote social evils and send recommendations to the government in such cases. The visionary initiative of the State Government aims to make the youth self-reliant, efficient and employment oriented through this Commission so that their future is secured,” Nitish Kumar said.

The decision was immediately welcomed by Chirag Paswan, whose party, LJP (RV), has joined the opposition to criticise the Bihar government over the murder of businessman Gopal Khemka.

“Setting up of the Youth Commission is an important part of the vision of ‘Bihar First-Bihari First’. My party Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) and I warmly welcome this decision and express gratitude to the Hon’ble Chief Minister,” Chirag Posted on X.
