Tejashwi Yadav, leader of the RJD and former Bihar deputy chief minister, held crucial discussions with senior Congress leaders on Monday evening to determine the seat-sharing strategy for the forthcoming Bihar assembly elections.
The discussions took place with Congress general secretary K C Venugopal and state in-charge Krishna Allavaru. The presence of Bihar Congress president Rajesh Ram signified the importance of these negotiations. While an anticipated meeting with Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge did not occur, Yadav returned to Patna, leaving behind ongoing negotiations.
As the elections loom, the main opposition alliance, Mahagathbandhan, composed of RJD and Congress, aims to finalize and announce their candidates. Meanwhile, the ruling NDA has disclosed its seat-sharing formula, with both JD(U) and BJP contesting 101 seats each, setting the stage for a strategic battle in the upcoming polls.
