Another wrong and irrelevant comment. I live in India. I am from Bihar. I know how my state works and how my Chief Minister is elected every 5 years. Both the main parties are headed by their respective leaders. Nitish Kumar heads the JDU and there has never been any doubt, before or after the elections, whatsoever, that he was going to be the Chief Minister. Yes, the party can elect anyone as the chief minister but thats purely in theory. In practice, every party throws forward their chief candidate for the Chief Minister post and they have always stuck to it - in every state - over last 60 years of Independence.

I suggest you stop trolling HN with your predefined bias against India. Yes, we have problems and we acknowledge it more than anyone else but you should stop trolling.
