Nitish Kumar started his political career in 1985 when he joined the “Janata Dal”. In the same year, he was elected as a Member of Legislative Assembly from the Harnaut constituency in Bihar.
In 1994, the “Janata Dal" broke into groups and Nitish Kumar along with George Fernandes started a new party called the “Samata Party (SAP)". After this split, Nitish Kumar moved away from the “Janata Dal”.
