In a bold political move, the opposition INDIA bloc has unveiled RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav as their candidate for chief minister in the forthcoming Bihar assembly elections. The announcement came as senior Congress figures, including Ashok Gehlot, worked meticulously to unify party lines.

The decision, which received nods from Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and prominent leader Rahul Gandhi, also suggests strategic plans to accommodate Bihar's nuanced social fabric with additional deputy chief minister positions.

Amidst ongoing speculations and rivalry, the BJP has hinted at internal differences within the INDIA bloc, while simultaneously asserting its own stance with Nitish Kumar set to lead their campaign. The political dynamics in Bihar continue to evolve as electorates remain poised for a definitive face-off.
