Earlier, Afzal Ali Khan had already received the RJD’s lantern symbol before the seat-sharing deal. Despite Lalu and Tejashwi Yadav’s efforts, Afzal refused to withdraw. Mukesh Sahni, showing political maturity, asked his brother to step down and supported Afzal to keep the NDA from gaining an advantage.

Tejashwi campaigned for Santosh, urging voters not to worry about Afzal’s rebellion. Later, Mukesh announced that this election was not about one MLA but about forming a Grand Alliance government. He appealed to VIP workers to support Afzal’s win, calling it a “big-hearted” move for unity.

This strategic decision by Mukesh Sahni replaces brother Santosh highlights party coordination over personal ambitions, keeping the Grand Alliance’s focus intact in Darbhanga’s complex political scene.

In the early years, Congress held Jale from 1952 to 1967. The Left made its mark in 1969, when CPI’s Khadim Hussain defeated Congress. Later, leaders like Tej Narayan Yadav of Bharatiya Jana Sangh and Abdul Salam of CPI fought tough contests. From 1990, Vijay Kumar Mishra dominated the seat, switching loyalties between Congress, BJP, and JD(U). His family’s grip ended in 2015 when Jivesh Kumar of BJP defeated Rishi Mishra in a decisive contest.

Today, Jale Assembly seat has 3.31 lakh voters, including 1.7 lakh men and 1.55 lakh women. Beyond politics, the region holds cultural importance, linked with Ahilya, Gautam Rishi, and the historic Gangewshwar Nath temple.

As the 2025 elections approach, Jivesh Kumar is preparing to retain his stronghold, while the opposition searches for a strong face. With history, caste, development, and ideology at play, Jale Assembly seat is set for another intense battle.
