NDA Deploys 14 Teams for Bihar Poll Push as Modi Visits Gaya on Aug. 22

The effort projects alliance unity under Nitish Kumar with Narendra Modi as the national face during ongoing seat-sharing talks.

Overview

  • Fourteen cross-party teams will hold workers’ meetings in two waves on August 23–25 and August 28–30 across roughly 83–84 Assembly constituencies.
  • Leadership is split evenly, with seven teams led by JD(U) figures and seven by BJP leaders, including Sanjay Kumar Jha, Umesh Kushwaha, Dilip Jaiswal, Samrat Chaudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha.
  • Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to be in Gaya on August 22 before the alliance ramps up campaign activity beginning August 23.
  • NDA parties frame the drive as a grassroots coordination push to showcase a united front, counter the opposition’s ‘Voter Adhikar’ narrative and work toward a stated target of 225 seats.
  • Seat-sharing remains to be finalised, with party sources indicating an emerging understanding, and reports vary on team size and the exact number of locations.
