Overview

  • No consensus has been reached on the allocation of seats, with Congress under pressure to reduce its share due to poor performance in previous elections.
  • The alliance has yet to decide on a chief ministerial candidate, with RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav stating that the decision will be made collectively after further consultations.
  • Opposition leaders have criticized the NDA government for Bihar's economic struggles, citing 20 years of governance with little progress on key issues such as income levels and migration.
  • A follow-up meeting is scheduled for April 17 in Patna, where final decisions on seat-sharing and leadership are expected to be made.
