]]> The Bihar Assembly elections are approaching, but Bihar Congress seat-sharing talks within the Grand Alliance are still pending. The party has held several meetings in Delhi, chaired by Ajay Maken, to finalize candidates. Congress has nearly finalized 40 names, including 19 sitting MLAs.

Leaders like Imran Pratapgarhi, Rajesh Ram, and Shakeel Ahmed Khan took part in long discussions. The party plans to field many new faces this time. Some current MLAs may contest from different constituencies. Seats where sitting MLAs face resentment are also under review.

Congress is claiming new constituencies and shortlisting strong candidates based on local conditions. While the Grand Alliance has not completed seat allocations, the Congress is eyeing more than its expected 70 seats. A senior leader confirmed that names will be announced immediately after the alliance finalizes seat-sharing.

The high command wants to finish the process quickly. The focus is on introducing fresh candidates and strengthening the party’s position across Bihar.
