New Delhi:
The stage is set for the second phase of Bihar assembly elections in which over 2.85 crore voters are eligible to decide the fate of nearly 1,500 candidates on Tuesday.
Voting will take place today in 94 assembly segments, more than a third of the 243-strong assembly spread across 17 districts, all of which but three — Patna, Bhagalpur and Nalanda — are situated north of the Ganges.
Notable among the candidates is the RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav, the opposition Grand Alliance’s Chief Ministerial candidate, who has been aggressively trying to cash in on the anti-incumbency factor against the Nitish Kumar government.
Here are the Live Updates for Bihar Assembly Election 2020:
You can get me to give you in writing that Nitish Kumar will never again be the Chief Minister after November 10. I’ll have no role to play, I want ‘Bihar first, Bihari first’. I want work to be done as per vision document prepared by suggestions of 4 Lakh Biharis: Chirag Paswan, LJP.
It will be clear, first phase has already given an indication: RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav when asked who will be the CM of Bihar#BiharPollshttps://t.co/2MC4fDYE7z
