Bihar Vote

A video of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar checking Prime Minister Narendra Modi's index finger for the indelible vote ink has gone viral on social media, shortly after the two leaders attended the inauguration ceremony of new Nalanda University

A newly elected MP of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's JD(U) on Monday found himself at the centre of a controversy for laments about "Muslims and Yadavs" not voting for the BJP-led NDA.

Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) president Chirag Paswan on Tuesday won the Hajipur Lok Sabha seat in Bihar, where he defeated the nearest RJD rival by over 1.70 lakh votes, the Election Commission said.

Union minister and BJP candidate from Bihar's Patliputra, Ram Kripal Yadav, had a narrow escape last night when his convoy was attacked and gunshots fired

Family members of an eighty-year-old Bihar woman, who died on Saturday, preferred to first cast their vote and then perform her last rites.

This was one of the tougher phases for the BJP in 2019 as it could win just 44% of the seats on offer.

PM Narendra Modi today vowed to thwart alleged attempts to rob Dalits and backward classes of reservations by the INDIA bloc which he accused of "enslavement" and performing "mujra" for Muslim vote bank.

RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on Friday called poll strategist Prashant Kishor a "BJP agent". The BJP is losing the elections, so he has been called after three-four rounds of voting to set the narrative, claimed the former deputy chief minister of Bihar

A government school teacher in Bihar has been arrested and sent to jail for allegedly telling children in his class "nobody should vote for Modi", an official said on Sunday.

In Bihar's Ujiarpur, people on the streets witnessed a peculiar sight: a young voter, on top of a buffalo, arrived at the polling booth to vote for the very first time.

Shubhadra Devi has been battling cancer, but that wasn't a reason for her to skip voting. She had been surviving only on water for four days, but still wanted to cast their vote, her son Vijay Kumar Mishra said.

The fourth phase of voting for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections ended today in 96 Lok Sabha constituencies across 10 states and Union Territories.

Additionally, the phase marks the conclusion of polling in the southern region of India, with Telangana and Andhra Pradesh casting their votes tomorrow.

Nitish Kumar today appeared to be asking for votes for late Ram Vilas Paswan, the veteran leader from Bihar who died in 2020. However, the 73-year-old Chief Minister quickly course corrected and pitched for Chirag Paswan, the late leader's son.

The third phase of the 2024 Lok Sabha election begins with voting for 93 seats across 12 states, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi's home state of Gujarat and the Hindi heartland belt of Madhya Pradesh, UP, Bihar, and Chhattisgarh.
