The NDA has finalised its seat-sharing plan for the Bihar Assembly elections. The BJP and Nitish Kumar’s JDU will contest 101 seats each out of 243. Chirag Paswan’s Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) will get 29 seats after long talks. Upendra Kushwaha’s Rashtriya Lok Morcha and Jitan Ram Manjhi’s Hindustan Awam Morcha will get six seats each. Paswan had demanded up to 45 seats but settled after meetings with BJP leader Dharmendra Pradhan. In the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, his party had won all five seats it contested, strengthening its bargaining power. (PC: NDTV)
