RJD Accuses Election Commission of “Stealing Bihar’s Mandate,” Demands Answers on Postal Ballot Irregularities

The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) has launched a strong attack on the Election Commission, alleging that the recently concluded Bihar Assembly elections were marred by manipulation and that the people’s mandate was “stolen.” The party has also raised concerns over what it calls the Commission’s “deliberate indifference” toward widespread financial and procedural irregularities recorded during the polling process.

Amit Shah’s Old Remark, Law & Order Portfolio Signal a Major Shift** In a landmark political development, the BJP has, for the first time in 21 years, taken control of Bihar’s Home Ministry — a portfolio that Nitish Kumar had never allowed to slip from his hands, regardless of whether he governed with the NDA or the Mahagathbandhan. By allocating the crucial Home Department to Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary, the BJP has not only asserted its dominance as the largest partner in the ruling coalition but also delivered on a long-standing demand that had been simmering beneath the surface.
