NCP (AP) to contest Bihar elections alone
The Sunday Guardian
|May 18, 2025
NCP (AP) has planned a solo Bihar poll run, sparking tension within NDA ranks.
Tensions are rising within the NDA in Bihar following the announcement by one of its allies, the Nationalist Congress Party - Ajit Pawar faction, to contest the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections independently. The party has confirmed its decision to go solo in the polls slated for October-November this year. This unexpected move has reportedly triggered panic within both the BJP and JDU, prompting urgent internal discussions within the NDA camp to address and find a solution to the emerging challenge posed by NCP (AP)'s decision.
On the other hand, Brijmohan Shrivastav, a senior leader and national spokesperson of NCP (AP), who is overseeing the party's preparations for the Bihar Assembly elections, informed The Sunday Guardian that the party is committed to fighting the election independently and has already begun groundwork across the state.

EXTERMINATE MOSQUITOES TO ERADICATE EIGHT DEADLY DISEASES
Till now, Iceland, with a harsh, unique climate and geographical isolation, was the only country in the world that was completely free of mosquitoes. Three mosquitoes were found in the Kjos valley in October 2025. Scientists blamed rising temperatures due to climate change and increased travel for these arrivals. Mosquitoes are vectors for deadly diseases like malaria, dengue, chikungunya, Japanese encephalitis, Zika, yellow fever, West Nile virus fever, and filariasis. In 2023, there were an estimated 263 million malaria cases and 597,000 deaths globally. World Malaria Day on 25 April and National Dengue Day on May 16th in India highlight the need for public education, continued investment, and sustained political commitment for prevention and control measures, especially before the monsoon season. ‘Chikungunya' means \"to become contorted,\" (due to severe joint pains) in the Kimakonde language in Tanzania and Mozambique.

WELFARE DELIVERY, MODI FACTOR PROPELLING NDA IN BIHAR POLLS
The Bihar elections opened with opposition parties confident that Nitish Kumar's long incumbency and public fatigue courtesy his 20 years of rule would translate into a difficult contest for the NDA. In the early phase of campaigning, this seemed plausible. The same feeling was also shared by top National Democratic Alliance leaders while interacting with journalists privately, including by two senior BJP Union Ministers, who spoke to this correspondent before and after the poll schedule was announced.
