Political activity in Bihar is heating up as elections approach. The Seemanchal region—covering Purnia, Katihar, Kishanganj, and Araria—will vote in the second phase on November 11. Leaders from all major parties have toured the area to assess the situation and prepare their strategy.
Both the Grand Alliance and the NDA hold 12 assembly seats each in Seemanchal. Yet, neither has finalized its list of candidates. Party leaders in Patna and Delhi are engaged in intense discussions about ticket allocation. The key debate is whether to repeat old candidates or introduce new ones.
Sources suggest that some constituencies will get new faces, while others will retain sitting members. However, one or two surprise names might still appear. The uncertainty has led to growing tension within both alliances.
In Purnia district alone, over 20.8 lakh voters are set to cast their votes. With the election date confirmed, people across Seemanchal are eagerly waiting for the official list of candidates. The final decision by both alliances could influence the entire political balance of the region.
