Bihar floods: Nitin Nabin donates three months’ Rajya Sabha MP salary to CM Relief Fund
The State government has already distributed ₹550 crore in direct financial assistance by transferring ₹7,000 to each flood affected family, the BJP National President said
National President of the Bhartiya Janata Party Nitin Nabin donated three months of his salary as a Rajya Sabha MP to the Bihar Chief Minister's Relief Fund on September 18, 2026. This donation amounted to ₹6.35 lakh, following the severe floods that affected about 50 lakh people in 15 districts of Bihar due to heavy rain and flash floods originating from Nepal.
Despite all assistance being provided through financial aid, relief camps, and crop damage assessments, Nabin emphasized his commitment to the flood-affected families. The Bihar government has already distributed ₹550 crore in direct financial assistance to each affected family. Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan visited the flood-affected districts, while the state government set up community kitchens, relief camps, and disaster response teams to aid the victims.
Flood waters in major rivers like the Ganga, Gandak, and Kosi are now receding, providing some relief to the affected areas.
