Grand Alliance Seat-Sharing Standoff Deepens

Bihar Assembly elections seat-sharing meeting

With the October 17 deadline nearing, the Bihar Assembly elections seat-sharing issue has become a hot topic. The Grand Alliance, led by RJD, is struggling to finalize its seat-sharing plan with Congress, while the NDA has already confirmed its strategy. RJD is ready to offer Congress 55 seats, but Congress wants 60. Talks between Tejashwi Yadav, KC Venugopal, and Krishna Allavaru are continuing.

Congress has shortlisted over 90 candidates but awaits an agreement. Meanwhile, RJD’s Lalu Prasad Yadav has distributed some party symbols, though a formal list is pending. The NDA has divided 101 seats each for BJP and JD(U), 29 for LJP (Ram Vilas), and 6 each for HAM and RLM. The first voting phase is on November 6 and the second on November 11. Results will be out on November 14.

As the Bihar Assembly elections seat-sharing battle continues, both alliances race against time to finalize candidates.
