Nitin Nabin held a roadshow in Patna on Tuesday, December 23, 2025, marking his first visit to his native Bihar after being appointed the Bharatiya Janata Party's national working president.
Until his appointment on December 14, Nabin was a little known minister in the Nitish Kumar government. When he takes over from current BJP national President Jagat Prakash Nadda after Makar Sakranti next month, he will be the BJP's youngest ever president.
