With the Bihar Assembly elections approaching, the NDA is finalizing its strategy, particularly concerning seat distribution. According to sources, the alliance has undertaken a thorough review of caste dynamics in each constituency. This analysis will guide the selection of candidates, ensuring the right mix of caste representation. The current formula favors retaining seats held by existing members, with potential ticket cancellations for MLAs who have received negative feedback in surveys. Further discussions on seat allocation will take place in Bihar before a final decision is made in Delhi.
Adding to the election excitement, Chirag Paswan has confirmed his participation in the Bihar Assembly elections. He declared his intention to contest from a seat that would be decided by the people. Paswan emphasized that his candidacy isn’t a bid for Chief Ministership, but a way to strengthen his party’s performance and support the NDA. His move is seen as a strategic positioning for his party during the seat distribution talks with the BJP and JD(U).
