The Bihar Election 2025 is heating up with every phase, and veteran leader Shatrughan Sinha is once again in the spotlight. Known for his unique political style, Shatrughan Sinha has openly supported Congress candidate Akhouri Omkarnath from Gaya, also known as Mohan Srivastava. In his message, he praised him as hardworking, honest, and a true voice of the people.
Interestingly, Shatrughan Sinha’s move has drawn attention because, in the first phase, he supported Jan Suraj candidate KC Sinha. Both KC Sinha and Akhouri Omkarnath belong to the Kayastha community — the same as Shatrughan Sinha. This consistent backing of Kayastha candidates suggests that Shatrughan Sinha may be playing the Kayastha card to connect with his community across political lines.
As a member of TMC, which is part of the Grand Alliance along with Congress, Shatrughan Sinha’s support strengthens the coalition’s image while also appealing to community sentiments. His actions highlight the mix of caste and coalition politics that continues to define Bihar’s election landscape.
