The NDA is nearing the completion of its seat distribution plans for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections, sources reveal. The alliance has conducted comprehensive surveys across all constituencies, assessing caste demographics to determine candidate selection. The goal is to carefully balance caste equations to maximize the chances of victory. The ‘sitting getting’ formula will likely be followed, with the possibility of some current MLAs losing their tickets based on performance assessments. Further discussions will be held in Bihar before the final decisions are made in Delhi.
Adding a new dimension, Chirag Paswan has confirmed his participation in the upcoming elections. He intends to contest from a seat chosen by the people of Bihar. Paswan stated that his decision to contest is aimed at boosting his party’s performance and helping the NDA win. His announcement is seen as a strategic move to enhance his party’s position in seat-sharing discussions with the larger parties like BJP and JD(U).
