Bhagalpur Emerges as Key Battleground as Nitish Kumar and PM Modi Target Congress MLA Ajit Sharma
Bhagalpur, Bihar: Bhagalpur, one of Bihar’s most closely watched constituencies in the ongoing Assembly elections, has become a high-stakes battleground as Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Prime Minister Narendra Modi reportedly make every effort to unseat Congress MLA Ajit Sharma. Political observers say the contest reflects a larger ideological clash between regional governance and national narratives in the state.
Ajit Sharma, a veteran politician who has held the Bhagalpur seat for over a decade, faces an aggressive campaign by the NDA alliance. Rallies, high-profile visits, and extensive local outreach programs have been organized to consolidate support for the BJP-JD(U) candidate. Nitish Kumar’s personal involvement, coupled with PM Modi’s public endorsements, signals the alliance’s determination to reclaim this key seat.
Despite the pressure from NDA’s top leadership, Sharma remains confident in his prospects, citing his track record of development work and strong ties with the local community. Adding to his campaign’s visibility, his daughter, actor Neha Sharma, has actively joined efforts, drawing youth engagement and social media attention.
Bhagalpur as a Political Litmus Test
The Bhagalpur contest is increasingly being seen as a litmus test for both parties. Analysts note that the outcome could indicate shifts in voter sentiment across Bihar, highlighting the Congress’s struggle to retain traditional bastions amid an assertive NDA campaign.
With election day approaching, all eyes remain on Bhagalpur as the constituency continues to dominate political discussions in Bihar and beyond.
