In a significant political maneuver, the opposition INDIA bloc has officially declared RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav as its chief ministerial candidate for the upcoming Bihar assembly elections. This decision, reached after weeks of intense deliberations, is widely viewed as a strategic move to consolidate the alliance’s position and present a united front. The declaration aims to quell internal disagreements and bolster the bloc’s chances in the crucial polls. Political analysts suggest this move could be a turning point for the INDIA alliance in Bihar, emphasizing Tejashwi Yadav’s leadership. The alliance also reportedly designated Mukesh Sahni, often referred to as ‘Son of Mallah,’ as the Deputy Chief Ministerial candidate, further solidifying their leadership lineup. Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has raised questions regarding the absence of Rahul Gandhi’s face on the alliance’s campaign posters, hinting at potential strategic differences within the opposition front.
