Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Thursday (August 21, 2025) reportedly refused to wear a skull cap that’s typically worn by Muslims at the centenary celebration of the Bihar Madrasa Education Board, where Mr. Kumar was the chief guest.
In a video that went viral on social media, Mr. Kumar can be seen holding the cap with both hands and placing it on the head of his Cabinet colleague and Minority Welfare Minister Mohammad Zama Khan.
