Neha Sharma’s presence turned the city festive, blending political passion with Bollywood glamour. She told reporters, “Bhagalpur has always blessed my father. I seek your love and support once again for victory.” The road show passed through Nayabazar, Sarai, Narga Chowk, Champa Nagar, Medini Nagar, and Tatarpur, ending near the railway station.

Ajit Sharma, contesting for the third time, faces NDA’s Rohit Pandey of the BJP. The event transformed Bhagalpur into a lively carnival of colors, music, and star power — marking a memorable moment in the Bihar Election 2025.

Historically, Bhagalpur has shifted between Congress, BJP, Jan Sangh, and Janata Party. Leaders like Vijay Kumar Mitra and Ashwini Kumar Choubey once dominated, while Congress leader Ajit Sharma has held the seat since 2014. Despite Congress’s recent wins, BJP continues to put strong efforts to reclaim this seat.

Local issues play a big role in elections. People of Bhagalpur face problems like waterlogging under Bholanath Bridge, poor drainage, traffic jams, and lack of drinking water. Although projects such as new ROBs and sewerage schemes were approved, residents feel progress is too slow.

Bhagalpur is not just political—it is also a city of culture. Famous novelist Sharat Chandra and film icons Ashok Kumar and Kishore Kumar have roots here. This cultural pride mixes with local frustrations, making the Bhagalpur election highly competitive this time.
