Elections will be held on 9 seats for the Legislative Council in Bihar while by-election will be held on one seat which is held by Nitish Kumar. That means elections are to be held on a total of 10 seats for which the dates have been announced. The biggest question is who will contest on how many seats in NDA? Who will be given a chance this time?
If sources are to be believed, JDU can contest on four seats, BJP on four and LJP Ram Vilas on one seat in NDA. At the same time, BJP can give one seat from its quota to Upendra Kushwaha’s party (RLM).
According to the number of MLAs, NDA’s victory on 9 out of 10 seats is considered certain. RJD can contest on one seat in the grand alliance and can also win.
If NDA fields candidates on 9 seats and RJD contests on one seat, then there will be no voting. To elect a member of the Legislative Council in the 243-member Bihar Assembly, the support of 25 MLAs is required.
Question- Who will get a chance from NDA?
The biggest question is, whom will the parties in NDA give a chance? Some names are already almost decided. The name of Nishant Kumar from JDU is considered fixed. JDU can make Lalan Mandal, Rajeev Kumar Singh, Bhisham Sahni as candidates. However, Ghulam Ghaus, Ghulam Rasool Baliyavi are also in the race.
Chirag’s nephew may get a chance
The name of Deepak Prakash from RLM is considered final. He is a minister in the government. Nishant Kumar is also the Health Minister. Chirag Paswan’s nephew Seemant Mrinal can be the candidate from LJP Ram Vilas.
The name of Sanjay Mayukh from BJP is considered final. Prem Ranjan Patel, Siddharth Shambhu, Rajendra Singh, Amrita Bhushan, Bhim Sahu are in the race. Whereas Sunil Singh can be a candidate from RJD.
Candidates will be selected keeping in mind the ethnic and regional balance. Out of the 10 seats on which elections are to be held, JDU currently has 5 seats. BJP has 2 seats, RJD has two seats while Congress has one.
