In Bihar, India, a big election was won by the NDA team.
Now, their leader, Nitish Kumar, will become the Chief Minister again.
The new government is expected to start on November 19th or 20th.
First, the old government will officially end, and Nitish Kumar will give his resignation.
Then, the NDA team will decide who their leader is before they officially form the new government.
The swearing-in ceremony will be a big event in Patna, with many important leaders from all over India expected to attend, including the Prime Minister.
