INDEPENDENT CANDIDATES DOMINATE THE BADAHARA ASSEMBLY SEAT

3-NOV-ENG 2

RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

ARA-------------------------Independent candidates include former JDU rebel MLC Ranvijay Singh, BJP rebel Suryabhan Singh, and RJD rebel Saroj Yadav. The Barhara Assembly constituency is a Rajput-dominated constituency. However, this time, Rajput voters appear to be unhappy with the BJP candidate.

The Barhara seat has become a major talking point in this Bihar Assembly election. The contest here is not a direct one, but a triangular one. On one side is the NDA-backed BJP candidate Raghavendra Pratap Singh, on the other is the Grand Alliance-backed RJD candidate Rambabu Singh, and on the third is an independent candidate. For the first time in the history of the Barhara Assembly constituency, it appears that independent candidates may also win the election.

Independent candidates include former JDU rebel MLC Ranvijay Singh, BJP rebel Suryabhan Singh, and RJD rebel Saroj Yadav. The Barhara Assembly constituency is a Rajput-dominated constituency. But this time, Rajput voters seem displeased with the BJP candidate and are not even turning to the RJD. Their eyes are fixed on independent candidates Ranvijay Singh and Suryabhan Singh.

Election discussions are currently rife in the villages and streets of Barhara. Voters are evaluating the candidates according to their own perspectives. When Local 18 correspondents reached out to the public, people revealed surprising facts. Voters in Kudaria village said they want change in Barhara this time. Current MLA Raghavendra Pratap Singh has not visited the area even once since he won the election.
