There is a possibility that seat sharing in the Grand Alliance may be announced on Tuesday (October 14, 2025). It is believed that talks with the parties involved in the grand alliance have almost been completed. However, Mukesh Sahni is incurring huge losses. That’s because they are not getting even half of the 60 seats they were talking about. If sources are to be believed, there is no consideration of giving more than 15 seats to Vikassheel Insaan Party.
First understand the formula of seats in the Grand Alliance
If sources are to be believed, talks have been held with Tejashwi Yadav on 60 Congress seats. That means there is no problem between Congress and RJD now. Now RJD is in talks especially with VIP’s Mukesh Sahni. Left parties can get 30 seats. It has been considered to give 15 seats for VIP, two seats for JMM and one seat for IIP. RJD itself will contest on 135 seats.
On the other hand, the question is that if Mukesh Sahni is not given more than 15 seats, will he be ready or will he suddenly go with NDA again like in the 2020 assembly elections? Discussion on such questions has started in the political circles. However, seats have been divided in the NDA alliance. BJP and JDU will fight on 101-101 seats. Whereas Chirag’s party has been given 29 seats. Jitan Ram Manjhi’s party HAM and Upendra Kushwaha have got six seats. The question is that if Mukesh Sahni joins NDA, which party will sacrifice seats? Let us tell you here that seat sharing has been announced in NDA but the joint press conference which was to be held in Patna on Monday has not taken place. For some reason the PC got postponed. This means that the tussle over seats continues in NDA also.
What do political experts say about Sahni?
Political expert Dhirendra Kumar said that Mukesh Sahni suddenly planned to go to Delhi. A lot was revealed from his language before leaving. Now it depends on Mukesh Sahni whether he remains in the grand alliance or not. There will be no offer from the Grand Alliance on these terms. Is the way open in NDA? On this he said that it is difficult to say. I think the path to NDA is now closed for Mukesh Sahni, but politics is a game of possibilities. Maybe some option will open up. If the option opens, it will be difficult to get six seats. Be it Grand Alliance or NDA, Mukesh Sahni is no longer in a position to make demands.
What did Mukesh Sahni’s party say?
On the other hand, a big leader of VIP party said that the seats are being reduced because of Akhilesh Singh (Congress leader). They are filling Lalu Yadav’s ears. Pressure is being put on RJD that if more seats are given to VIPs then after winning they can go with BJP and form the government. On the question whether there is a possibility of joining NDA? On this it was said that no, we have to remain in the Grand Alliance only.
