Patna: The preparation of Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 is in full swing and political stir is also faster over the seat sharing in the NDA. In this episode, Union Minister and LJP (Ram Vilas) President Chirag Paswan has given a big statement. He clarified that his party would not compromise with respectable seats under any circumstances and the decision of seat sharing has been postponed till Navratri.
Chirag Paswan said that the day of Navratri is considered auspicious and during this time all the parties of the alliance will get good news related to the seats. He also said that “Everyone knows who has been in which coalition by compromising respect.” That is, by reiterating his stance, he clarified that LJP (Ram Vilas) would not agree on the seat sharing until he gets respectable seats.
Decision of seats postponed till Navratri
According to sources, NDA strategists are currently preparing to take a final decision on the issue of seats. However, Chirag Paswan’s statement has made it clear that his party will only agree to respectable seats. Due to this, the matter of seat sharing in NDA has been postponed till Navratri. Political analysts say that during this time the possibility of formal announcement will also remain, but it will depend entirely on mutual consent between the coalition parties.
Chirag said that his party’s focus is not only on political gains, but to ensure that his supporters and workers in which they fought, have both respect and faith. He says that the people of Bihar will no longer accept the politics of copying or agreement of any party. Therefore, LJP (Ram Vilas) is adamant on its stand.
Seats divide in NDA
The issue of seat sharing in NDA is considered to be quite sensitive. The share of seats between JDU, BJP and VIP was fixed in the 2020 assembly elections. Now strategic equations have changed due to the involvement of two new parties in 2025. According to sources, JDU and BJP are also trying to give respectable seats to the parties involved in the coalition, but the stance of Chirag Paswan has made it more complicated.
Political analysts say that this statement of Chirag is also an indication that the NDA will not have to ignore the attitude of LJP (Ram Vilas) in the selection of candidates in the upcoming election. He says that the matter of respectable seats at the time of seat sharing will be based on the internal strength and number of workers of the party.
Alliance and election strategy
The challenge for the NDA remains that the seats have to be distributed by maintaining the balance of all parties. Chirag Paswan’s statement has made it clear that LJP (Ram Vilas) will not compromise with respectable seats at any cost, and other parties will also have to pay attention to it. In the political atmosphere, this issue will remain the center of discussion till Navratri.
