With rallies, slogans, and active campaigns, Patna Sahib remains a key constituency. The 80,000 Kushwaha votes and public sentiment could ultimately decide whether Ratnesh Kushwaha or Sushant Shekhar emerges victorious.
Patna: As Bihar elections approach, the political temperature in Patna Sahib is soaring. Any discussion about Bihar polls is incomplete without this high-profile seat. Dynamite News team visited this hotspot, where the burning question is: “Who will form the government this time?”
BJP’s Big Move
The BJP created a major stir by denying a ticket to seven-time winning MLA Nand Kishore Yadav, considered the undisputed face of Patna Sahib. Instead, the party has fielded Ratnesh Kushwaha. Analysts say this is a strategy to consolidate the Kushwaha vote bank, with around 80,000 Kushwaha voters in the constituency.
Grand Alliance in the Race
The Grand Alliance (Congress-RJD) has fielded young leader Sushant Shekhar, known for his grassroots presence. Leaders claim the public seeks change, giving Sushant an edge among voters wanting a fresh approach.
Voter Trends and Issues
Dynamite News’ “Bihar Mein Ka Ba” revealed mixed public opinion. Some voters appreciated BJP policies, while others sought change, citing development, employment, and education over caste. Patna Sahib’s diverse voter base, including Kushwaha, Koeri, Kurmi, Muslim, and Yadav communities, makes it a triangular contest and a prestige battle for both alliances.
