Bihar Election: Campaign Ends Today, Verbal Battles Heat Up Ahead of Second Phase Voting

As the campaign for the second phase of the Bihar Assembly elections comes to an end, the political scene has turned chaotic with controversies, sharp exchanges, and street-level showdowns. A major stir erupted after a video from Samastipur’s Mohiuddin Nagar strong room surfaced on social media, showing suspicious activity. The video, shared on Twitter, alleged that unknown individuals were seen entering the strong room, prompting demands for an official clarification from the Election Commission. The incident has sparked political outrage, with parties accusing each other of foul play. Meanwhile, Union Minister Smriti Irani, campaigning in Bihar, made headlines for a lighter moment when she offered golgappas to local leaders upon learning that the vendor hailed from Madhya Pradesh. Actor-turned-politician Ravi Kishan energized the crowd with patriotic songs, vowing to prevent the return of “jungle raj.” On the other hand, Tejashwi Yadav continued his fierce attacks on the BJP and Prime Minister Modi, alleging that “30 helicopters” were deployed to stop his rallies. Adding to the drama, Tej Pratap Yadav lost his temper during a rally after spotting a youth wearing a green scarf, while Rahul Gandhi addressed rallies in Kishanganj and Purnia. With over 1300 candidates contesting across 122 seats, and leaders like Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh, and Yogi Adityanath making their final pitches, Bihar’s second phase is shaping up to be a high-voltage political battle.
