This special report covers the escalating political turmoil in Bihar ahead of crucial elections, highlighting Home Minister Amit Shah's active management of the NDA's strategy versus the internal collapse faced by the Mahagathbandhan, led by figures like Tejashwi Yadav and Rahul Gandhi. The bulletin states, 'From ticket distribution to allegations that rival candidates are being fielded on the same seats, it's Mahakad Bandhan versus Mahakad Bandhan in at least eight key constituencies.' While the NDA presents a united front by successfully convincing rebel candidates in seats like Buxar and Patna Sahib to withdraw their nominations, the opposition alliance is plagued by chaos. The Mahagathbandhan has failed to make a formal seat-sharing announcement, leading to allies fielding candidates against each other and creating widespread confusion.
00:00It's less than three weeks to go for the crucial Bihar elections.
00:03The Mahakadbandhan at the moment is cracking under its own weight.
00:07Fractures are deepening within the alliance.
00:09Tejas Viyadav is battling dissent in his own backyard.
00:13When we look at the parallel power play that's happening,
00:16it's Home Minister Amit Shah who's taken charge.
00:18He's burning the midnight oil to convince the NDA rebels to step down.
00:23From ticket distribution to allegations that rival candidates are being fielded on the same seats,
00:27it's Mahakadbandhan versus Mahakadbandhan in at least eight key constituencies.
00:33Till now, there has been no formal seat-sharing announcement that has been done from the Mahakadbandhan.
00:38Rahul Gandhi and Tejas Viyadav have been successful in building consensus on the Veshali seat.
00:43The Congress candidate has withdrawn.
00:45The BJP has launched a high-stake operation to contain the own damage that's happening at the moment.
00:51Union Home Minister Amit Shah, he's the party's mastermind.
00:54He's now taken full control.
00:56He's burning the midnight oil in Patna.
00:58He's been holding closed-door meetings with the rebel candidates.
01:02Senior BJP leaders have been deployed to bring them back into line.
01:05Party workers are now all set to present a united front.
01:09As the battle for the state of Bihar is heating up,
01:12it's Mahakadbandhan which is at war within itself.
01:14The BJP is already on mission mode.
01:16The BJP is now on mission.
01:36।
02:01Indian for two Indian states is a new strength of the country,
02:06the state of the state of India and the state of India.
02:10They are committed to their social distancing and all of them are committed to their service.
02:15There are all those who have to be shifted to society,
02:21and they are very good,
02:24so that is a very good reason.
02:26I hope that all the cities will win in the Bihar in the Bihar.
02:45This is my third term.
02:55Thank you very much.
03:25Now let's tell you how Home Minister Amit Shahz-Chanakya Neeti in Bihar is panning out.
03:50Let's talk about the seat of Baksa.
03:53There was a rebel BJP person.
03:54He in fact had filed his nomination as an independent.
03:58There was a closed door meeting that took place between this person who had filed the nomination as an independent.
04:04After he met with Home Minister Amit Shahz-Chanakya, he has now withdrawn his nomination.
04:08So this is with regards to the seat in Baksa.
04:11When we speak about Brahmapur, now they had joined the Jan Soraj after being denied BJP ticket.
04:16This person also has now withdrawn the nomination.
04:19What we are seeing in the state of Bihar, actually a lot of people, those who did not get tickets from other parties, they are the ones who had joined the Jan Soraj.
04:27So this candidate also, after he met Home Minister Amit Shahz-Chanakya, has withdrawn the candidature.
04:32If we speak about Tarapur, VIP candidate withdrew the nomination, has now joined the BJP.
04:38So these are the three key states that we are looking at at the moment.
04:42And all these three, they had a conversation, they had a meeting with Home Minister Amit Shahz-Chanakya and then they have withdrawn the nomination.
04:48My colleague Piyush is now joining me on the story.
04:51Piyush, we are seeing how the NDA is now making sure that they have a united front.
04:56Piyush, they are also now making sure that all those people who want to either contest independently or want to join other parties,
05:02they are being brought back into the NDA fold. So very clearly a strategy at play there.
05:09Well, absolutely. NDA, since beginning, Aishwarya has been working on various strategies to ensure that its votes does not get split.
05:16It is also in touch with various rebel candidates to ensure that they are back into the party fold so that NDA does not feel the heat of any kind of rebel
05:26or any kind of promise which their other candidate or their senior leaders make at a seat where the NDA has already announced their official candidate.
05:36But on the other side, in Mahakadbandan, confusion, he confusion-like situation is there in Mahakadbandan.
05:44You know, the nominations for the first phase have come to an end.
05:47The withdrawal of nomination date has also gone.
05:49You know, the second phase of nomination date has also been passed, but still, Mahakadbandan has not been able to decide on how many seats these parties are going to fight.
06:00How many seats, you know, are there in Mahakadbandan, on which they are focusing on, though yesterday RGD had released a list of 143 candidates.
06:10There are various seats, like Vaishali, Lal Ganj. These are the seats of first phase, you know, on which there are candidates of Congress and RGD.
06:20So we'll have to wait and watch for how long this confusion will continue, because yes, at the end of the day,
06:24if this confusion continues, then it is going to hit the prospects of Mark and Bandar in the state of Bihar.
