He remarked, \u201c<strong>Mahagathbandhan has become a bit unwell<\/strong>. We are going to Delhi, and all the doctors are in Delhi, so better treatment will happen there. We will return to Patna after getting healthy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite Sahni&#8217;s light-hearted admission, Bihar Congress leader Shakeel Ahmad Khan sought to reassure constituents about the unity of the alliance. Khan stated, \u201cA meeting will be held, and everything will be finalized. The Mahagathbandhan is united, and the current corrupt government is certain to go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As the opposition huddles in Delhi, the NDA has solidified plans for its candidates. Under the NDA&#8217;s arrangement, both Nitish Kumar\u2019s Janata Dal (United) and the BJP are set to contest 101 seats each, while Chirag Paswan\u2019s Lok Janshakti Party has been allocated 29 seats. The Hindustani Awam Party (Secular), led by Jitan Ram Manjhi, and the Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM) will contest six seats apiece.<\/p>\n<p>The Bihar elections will occur for its 243-member Legislative Assembly, with voting divided into two phases on November 6 and November 11. The counting of votes will take place on November 14.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mahagathbandhan leaders convened in Delhi to finalize seat-sharing ahead of the Bihar Assembly elections, amidst internal challenges and NDA announcements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":978,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-979","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-national"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
