Bahubali Candidates Seat Voting: In Bihar, the voting temperature is also skyrocketing in the seats where strongmen dominate. In every seat from Mokama to Lalganj, Manjhi and Danapur, people have come out to decide whose ‘dominance’ will prevail this time… the public or the Bahubali.
Condition of Anant Singh’s stronghold Mokama
Mokama assembly seat has become the most discussed field of this election. Here, Bahubali Anant Singh is contesting elections on JDU ticket despite being in jail. He is accused of murdering Dularchand Yadav. Anant’s supporters, who are behind bars, are in high spirits outside. 26.80% voting has taken place in the first 4 hours itself. Veena Devi and Piyush Priyadarshi are trying their best against Anant, but the influence of the name of ‘Chhote Sarkar’ is still clearly visible in the streets of the area.
Battle of ‘daughter vs inheritance’ in Lalganj
A confluence of political heritage and muscle power is being seen on Lalganj seat. Munna Shukla’s daughter Shivani Shukla is in the fray from here, to whom RJD has given ticket. By 9 am, 14.96% voting took place, which increased to 30.12% by 11 am. Here the public will decide whether Munna Shukla’s legacy will reach his daughter Shivani or the public will choose a new face.
Prabhunath Singh’s son Randhir in Manjhi
On Manjhi seat, Janata Dal United has expressed confidence in Randhir Singh, the son of Bahubali Prabhunath Singh. Prabhunath is currently in jail in a murder case, but the public’s eyes are on his son Randhir. Till 11 o’clock, 27.28% voting was recorded here, which means that public enthusiasm is strong on this seat too.
Ritlal Yadav in the race for Danapur
From Danapur, RJD has fielded Ritlal Yadav, who himself is accused in many serious cases and is currently in jail. BJP’s Ramkripal Yadav is against him. 22.98% voting took place in the first 4 hours, which means the public is keeping the ‘Battle of Danapur’ interesting this time too.
Raghunathpur and Brahmapur, old influence in new faces
Shahabuddin’s son Osama Shahab is in the fray in Raghunathpur. The father’s image is still a topic of discussion in the area, and that is why 26.99% voting has taken place till 11 am. In Brahmapur, Hulas Pandey, who has been an accused in the murder case of Ranveer Sena chief Brahmeshwar Mukhiya, is once again playing election tricks. There was 28.66% voting here. This shows that this time too the public is not ignoring the musclemen.
Public vs Bahubali, who will win?
Voting is taking place in 18 districts of Bihar in the first phase, and public participation in the seats of strongmen has made the election more interesting. At present, the results will be declared on 14th November, but today Bihar has shown that the real power of democracy is still in the hands of the people.
