Bihar Vidhan Sabha Deputy Speaker Narendra Narayan Yadav will serve as the 19th Deputy Speaker of the Bihar Legislative Assembly. The Bihar Vidhan Sabha Deputy Speaker role comes to him for the second time, making this a rare achievement in the state’s history.
The election for the post will take place on December 4th. Speaker Prem Kumar announced the schedule. Yadav earlier worked as the Pro-tem Speaker in the 18th Assembly and managed the Speaker’s election process smoothly.
He first became Deputy Speaker of the 17th Vidhan Sabha on February 23, 2024. Now he returns to the same role in the 18th Vidhan Sabha. Before him, Shakoor Ahmed also served two consecutive terms. Yadav is the 19th person to hold this position after independence.
Devsharan Singh was the first Deputy Speaker after independence, while Abdul Bari held the responsibility before independence from 1937 to 1939. Over the decades, many leaders—from Jagat Narayan Lal to Maheshwar Hazari—served in this role and shaped legislative functioning.
Narendra Narayan Yadav now joins this long list of important names in Bihar’s political history. His experience and continuity are expected to bring stability to the Assembly.
