Bihar News: Speculation on Seat Sharing Between RJD and JDU
There is currently a lot of speculation regarding seat sharing between RJD and JDU in the Grand Alliance in Bihar. The decision on seats is expected to be made this month, with Congress not being part of the discussion. There is particular focus on ten seats where RJD had direct fights with BJP and LJP in the last Lok Sabha elections, even though RJD did not win those seats, they received a significant number of votes.
Patliputra and Saran Seats May Go back to RJD
It is likely that the Patliputra seat will once again be allocated to RJD. Dr. Misa Bharti, daughter of Lalu Prasad Yadav and a Rajya Sabha member, has been contesting elections from this seat. This is why there is talk of RJD reclaiming this seat in the Grand Alliance. Saran, another Lok Sabha seat, is also in discussion. Although Chandrika Rai contested from this seat on an RJD ticket in the last elections, he lost to BJP’s Rajiv Pratap Rudy. RJD still considers Saran as their traditional seat and their supporters are hopeful for it this time as well.
Talk on RJD’s Mathematics in Nawada, Hajipur, and Vaishali
RJD’s performance in Nawada, Hajipur, and Vaishali Lok Sabha constituencies is being discussed. These three seats belong to LJP, but RJD candidates secured the second position in the last elections. Vibha Devi’s family has been associated with RJD in Nawada, while family feuds within LJP may play a role in Hajipur. Chirag Paswan is rumored to contest from there, while the current MP, Pashupati Paras, is adamant about not leaving the seat. RJD had a stake in Hajipur and Vaishali in the last elections as well.
Possible Changes in Candidates and Seats
Jagdanand Singh, who contested on an RJD ticket from Buxar in the last election, may not receive a ticket due to his age. There is speculation that his son may claim the seat instead. Similarly, Abdul Bari Siddiqui, who was the RJD candidate in Darbhanga in the last elections, may be replaced by someone else and fight from Madhubani instead.
