Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav rode motorcycles during their 16-day Voter Adhikar Yatra in Bihar. The Yatra started on 17 Aug 2025 from Sasaram and will cover over 20 districts, ending on 1 Sep in Patna. They are campaigning against alleged vote theft by the Election Commission and BJP amid voter roll revisions. Large crowds gathered to support them in districts like Araria and Purnia. Tejashwi criticized Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s 20-year rule and promised change for Bihar’s youth. The Yatra highlights opposition unity while the NDA prepares for upcoming polls. The Supreme Court allowed excluded voters to claim inclusion with Aadhaar, easing voter concerns. Opposition leaders urge allies like Chandrababu Naidu and Nitish Kumar to oppose new Bills targeting jailed ministers. The campaign reflects rising anti-incumbency and hopes for political change in Bihar. (Updated 26 Aug 2025, 23:48 IST; source: link)
