The statement came amid growing speculation over the distribution of seats between key alliance members -the RJD, Congress, Left parties and Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP).
Adding to the anticipation, VIP chief Mukesh Sahni said the alliance had overcome earlier differences and would make the announcement shortly. “The announcement will be made by tomorrow or the day after. There’s no resentment. The alliance was unwell, not me. Now it’s fine,” he remarked, signalling internal cohesion.

Earlier, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav held a crucial meeting with top Congress leaders, including KC Venugopal, Bihar Congress in-charge Krishna Allavaru, and Bihar Congress President Rajesh Ram, in Delhi on Monday to discuss the Bihar elections and potential seat-sharing arrangements. The meeting comes ahead of the likely announcement of the opposition ‘Mahagathbandhan’ alliance’s seat-sharing plan. Reports suggest that Tejashwi will also meet Rahul Gandhi to finalise coordination strategies. The discussions are expected to shape the electoral battlefield in Bihar significantly.
