Little may be known whether he believes in numerology or not, but November 24 has again proved to be lucky for Nitish Kumar as he led the BJP-JD(U) combine to a thumping win today, five years after being sworn-in as Bihar chief minister on this very date.

Though he was at the helm of affairs for a very brief period of seven days in 2000, he took charge as the state's 33rd chief minister on November 24, 2005.

However, there isn't much November connection otherwise in the political career of the JD(U) leader who has an electrical engineering degree.
