The INDIA bloc's performance in the Bihar Lok Sabha elections faced setbacks due to several errors, including poor ticket distribution, according to CPI(ML) general secretary Dipankar Bhattacharya. In a detailed interview, Bhattacharya emphasized the need to analyze these mistakes ahead of future elections.

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's decision to switch alliances just before the 2024 general elections exacerbated the bloc's struggles. Despite previous close alignments, the bloc's performance was below expectations, particularly in north Bihar.

Bhattacharya remains hopeful for the upcoming assembly elections, stressing the importance of overcoming generational changes in Bihar's political landscape.
