After the Lok Sabha elections (Lok Sabha Election 2024), by-elections are to be held on the vacant assembly seats in different states of the country. The Election Commission may also announce Bihar by-elections along with the announcement of the dates for the Jammu and Kashmir and Haryana assembly elections. By-elections are to be held on four vacant assembly seats in the state.
Four MLAs of the state tried their luck in the Lok Sabha elections and were successful. After this, Tarari, Ramgarh, Belaganj and Imajganj assembly seats of Bihar became vacant. Now by-elections are to be held on these seats.
Bihar assembly elections were held in the year 2020. CPI-ML’s Sudama Prasad was elected MLA from Tarari assembly seat here and now he has reached the Delhi House as a Member of Parliament. At the same time, Sudhakar Singh, who was an RJD MLA from Ramgarh assembly seat and a former minister, has been elected MP from Buxar Lok Sabha seat.
RJD leader Surendra Yadav, who became the MP from Jehanabad, won from Belagnj assembly seat in 2020. Apart from this, former Deputy Chief Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi, who is now a Union Minister in the NDA government, won from Imamganj seat during the assembly elections in 2020.
Now by-elections are to be held on these four seats. It remains to be seen whether the NDA is able to work its magic in the by-elections or the alliance will show its strength.
