Bihar Polls: INDIA Bloc’s Secret Seat-Sharing Summit
A six-hour-long meeting of the INDIA alliance parties in Bihar concluded today, July 12, 2025, marking the commencement of crucial seat-sharing negotiations for the upcoming Assembly elections. The discussions, held behind closed doors, remain shrouded in secrecy.
While official details are scarce, sources suggest the meeting covered not only seat allocation but also comprehensive election strategies. Sharp criticism of the NDA government’s performance also featured prominently in the deliberations.
Tejashwi Yadav, the RJD leader, is widely expected to be the alliance’s Chief Ministerial face. His projected leadership role is seen as a key factor in the ongoing negotiations.
The outcome of these closed-door talks will significantly shape the electoral landscape of Bihar, impacting the state’s political trajectory and the national narrative in the run-up to the crucial state elections. The alliance’s success hinges on its ability to present a united front and effectively counter the ruling NDA.
