As the Bihar Assembly elections draw near, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has strategically unveiled a robust list of 40 star campaigners, highlighting the party’s all-out approach to this crucial electoral contest. The release of this list marks a significant escalation in campaign activities.
Headlining the campaign are Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, who will be joined by a powerful contingent of top Union ministers and state leaders. Their primary objective will be to champion the cause of NDA candidates across the poll-bound state.
The electoral process in Bihar will unfold in two phases. The first phase of voting is scheduled for November 6, covering 121 assembly seats, followed by the second phase on November 11 for 122 seats. The official results are expected to be declared on November 14.
The BJP’s star campaigners include Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP National President J.P. Nadda, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and Union Ministers Nitin Gadkari, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, and Dharmendra Pradhan. Furthermore, chief ministers from Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Assam, Madhya Pradesh, and Delhi – Yogi Adityanath, Devendra Fadnavis, Himanta Biswa Sarma, Mohan Yadav, and Rekha Gupta – will lend their campaigning prowess.
From Bihar, prominent leaders such as Deputy Chief Ministers Samrat Choudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha, Bihar BJP President Dilip Jaiswal, Union Minister Giriraj Singh, and former Union Ministers Ravi Shankar Prasad and Ashwini Kumar Choubey are included. The list also features Nityanand Rai, Radha Mohan Singh, Renu Devi, Prem Kumar, Rajiv Pratap Rudy, Sanjay Jaiswal, Nand Kishore Yadav, Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti, and Vinod Tawde.
In a move to boost public connect, the BJP has also enlisted popular figures from the Bhojpuri and Hindi film industries: Pawan Singh, Manoj Tiwari, Ravi Kishan, and Dinesh Lal Yadav ‘Nirahua’.
This comprehensive campaign strategy by the BJP, coinciding with the NDA’s finalized seat distribution, signifies a heightened political tempo in Bihar. As the campaign intensifies, all parties are gearing up for a fiercely contested election.
