NDA to Finalize Bihar Seat Allocations After Poll Dates
The NDA, a group of political parties, is deciding how to split up seats in the upcoming Bihar election.
They're waiting for the official election dates before making a final decision.
Key parties like BJP, JDU, and Chirag Paswan's LJP are in talks.
The goal is to keep politicians from switching sides.
Chirag Paswan is asking for a lot of seats, but others in the NDA have different ideas.
The BJP is trying to find a good balance to help the NDA win.
NDA will finalize seat-sharing after election dates are announced.
Election Commission is expected to announce poll dates in early October.
BJP aims to prevent ticket aspirants from switching parties.
Chirag Paswan's LJP (Ram Vilas) is negotiating for a significant number of seats.
JDU may contest more seats than the BJP to appear as the larger partner.
