The political landscape in Bihar is heating up as the INDIA bloc has revealed its candidates for the upcoming assembly by-polls in four seats. This follows vacancies created when three MLAs were elected to the Lok Sabha.

The RJD will contest three seats—Ramgarh, Belaganj, and Imamganj. Ajit Singh from Ramgarh and Vishwanath Kumar Singh from Belaganj are notable candidates due to familial political ties. Meanwhile, CPI(ML) aims to retain its hold on Tarari with Raju Yadav.

On the NDA side, BJP has announced candidates for Ramgarh and Tarari. Speculation surrounds Imamganj and Belaganj, with possible candidates being weighed. The nominations close on October 25, with polling on November 13 and counting on November 23.
