Former Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav is set to be the chief ministerial face of the Opposition alliance, Mahagathbandhan, for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections scheduled to take place later this year. However, a formal announcement regarding this development is expected to be made at a later stage in the election cycle. Recently, Yadav was appointed as the head of the alliance's Coordination Committee and is slated to lead the Mahagathbandhan throughout the campaign.

Yadav has already begun preparations for the elections. He reiterated that the Mahagathbandhan would contest the elections with full determination and collective spirit—not for personal ambition, but to serve the people of Bihar.

"Bihar has not witnessed a stable government in the last 13 years," Yadav said.

"This time, we will approach the people with a unified message and a clear purpose."
