Nabin was appointed as the BJP national working president on December 14 and is likely to eventually succeed JP Nadda as its national president, signalling a generational shift in the ruling party.
Son of late BJP veteran and former MLA Nabin Kishore Prasad Sinha, Nabin, 45, is considered dynamic, ideologically rooted and deeply committed to the organisation, party leaders said.
He also comes from the RSS background. A five-time MLA, Nabin represents Bankipur assembly constituency in Bihar and has served twice as a minister in the Bihar Government. Nabin resigned from the Nitish Kumar Cabinet in Bihar on Thursday, according to a notification by the State Government.
He held key portfolios like road construction, and urban development and housing. According to the notification of the Cabinet Secretariat department, he ceased to be a minister with effect from December 16.
