Overview

• Congress, RJD and allies plan a foot march in Patna on Monday, capping a 16‑day tour that covered about 1,300 km across 25 districts and more than 110 assembly seats.
• Akhilesh Yadav joined the yatra in its closing stretch, labeled the Election Commission a "Jugaad Commission" for the BJP, and publicly backed Tejashwi Yadav as the alliance’s chief ministerial face.
• Tejashwi Yadav declared himself the INDIA bloc’s CM candidate at Ara, as Rahul Gandhi called the drive a “revolution” to ensure no votes are “stolen.”
• Opposition speakers accuse the BJP and the Election Commission of colluding through the Special Intensive Revision of Bihar’s electoral rolls, a charge they made central to speeches and slogans.
• BJP leaders mounted counter-mobilisations, including women’s wing and candle marches demanding an apology over the Darbhanga video; police have arrested an accused over the abusive remark.
