Voting is being held in Bihar on Friday for four Lok Sabha seats – Gaya, Aurangabad, Nawada, and Jamui. The candidates tried their best till the last moment to ensure maximum voter participation in the voting. Still appealing to people to go and vote. But, in the National Democratic Alliance, one candidate of the Bharatiya Janata Party, one candidate of Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas), and one candidate of Hindustani Awam Morcha Secular are not voting for themselves. On the other hand, two candidates of Rashtriya Janata Dal in the Grand Alliance are not voting for themselves. Four out of these five are not voting at all today. Even if one RJD candidate votes, he will vote for the other one. Four candidates each from NDA and Grand Alliance are face to face on these four seats, but the situation remains the same. Because these are not the voters of their constituency.
Three NDA candidates are voters from other areas.
Former Chief Minister and HAM-SE chief Jitan Ram Manjhi is the NDA candidate from the Gaya (Reserved) Lok Sabha seat. 78-year-old Jitan Ram Manjhi himself is a voter of the Atari assembly constituency of Jehanabad Lok Sabha constituency. Therefore, he could not vote himself on Friday. He will vote in the seventh phase on June 1. In Jehanabad, candidates from Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's party Janata Dal-United have been fielded from NDA. BJP's Rajya Sabha MP Vivek Thakur is the candidate from Nawada Lok Sabha seat. 54-year-old Vivek Thakur himself is a voter of Bankipur assembly constituency of Patna Sahib Lok Sabha seat. They will also vote in the final phase on June 1. Here BJP has given another chance to the sitting MP Ravi Shankar Prasad. Similarly, Arun Bharti, son-in-law of Lok Janshakti Party founder late Ram Vilas Paswan and brother-in-law of LJP (Ram Vilas) chief Chirag Paswan, is the NDA candidate from Jamui (reserved) Lok Sabha seat. He is a voter of the Danapur assembly seat under the Patliputra parliamentary constituency. Voting on this seat is also to be held in the last phase on June 1. BJP has fielded sitting MP Ramkripal Yadav from here.
Two candidates of Grand Alliance are voters from other areas
The parties giving local candidates in the Lok Sabha elections may say whatever they want about giving a candidate from outside the Lok Sabha constituency, but the reality is that there is no whitewash in this matter. Grand Alliance's Jamui candidate Archana Ravidas of Lalu Prasad Yadav's party Rashtriya Janata Dal also could not cast her vote on Friday from her Lok Sabha seat. She is a voter of the Munger Assembly seat of the Munger parliamentary constituency. 38-year-old Archana will cast her vote in the fourth phase on May 13. Last time Congress had fielded a candidate for Munger seat. This time RJD hurriedly married gangster-criminal Ashok Mahato and gave a ticket to his wife Anita Devi. After being an MLA from JDU, Abhay Kushwaha, who returned to RJD and contested the Lok Sabha elections from the Aurangabad seat, is a voter of Belaganj assembly constituency of Gaya Lok Sabha seat. He will cast his vote in the afternoon. Elections are being held in Gaya today itself. Here RJD has fielded former minister Kumar Sarvjeet.
