NDA begins talks on seat sharing in Bihar
Hindustan Times Chandigarh
|April 29, 2025
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies have begun the process of identifying seats that will be divided among the partners for the upcoming polls in Bihar, and on the table could be the swapping of seats between partners, depending on the winnability of candidates, two persons aware of the details said on Monday.
NEW DELHI:
There is a broad consensus among the allies that chief minister and Janata Dal (United) leader Nitish Kumar will be the face of the elections.
The JD(U), Hindustan Awam Morcha (HAM), Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas), and the Rashtriya Lok Samta Party (RLSP) are part of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) that will jointly contest the polls, scheduled to take place in October-November.
According to a senior BJP leader, the process of identifying seats will precede the candidate selection and all the partners will be consulted.
