Bihar Polls: Complex Coalition Politics UnfoldsSaralnama

What's happening in Bihar's political landscape? Where are the key developments taking place? When is this unfolding? Complex coalition politics are at play in Bihar as the state gears up for Assembly polls. The NDA, led by Nitish Kumar and anchored by the BJP, faces a challenge from the Opposition Mahagathbandhan (INDIA alliance). Prashant Kishore's Jan Suraaj Party adds a new dimension. The BJP must keep Nitish as CM to prevent him from switching sides. JD(U) wants more seats than BJP. Nitish's support base remains strong despite health issues. The election outcome could impact national politics, with the BJP's central government relying on allies. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' has drawn attention, while RJD's Tejashwi Yadav conducted his own 'Bihar Adhikar Yatra'. Seat-sharing negotiations are ongoing within the grand alliance. Bihar's political significance extends beyond state borders, potentially influencing national trends.
