won the Kishanganj seat. Bihar chief minister, Nitish Kumar, who was founding member of the I.N.D.I.A alliance, he parted ways months before the Lok Sabha elections and returned to NDA fold.


He ended the alliance with RJD, Congress dealing a severe blow to the opposition parties. The alliance has not been able to seal the seat sharing even as NDA parties have decided their


formula. AIMIM will contest the elections from 11 Lok Sabha seats 2019 Lok Sabha Elections | Election Commission of India (ECI). BIHAR LOK SABHA ELECTIONS 2024 SCHEDULE Bihar Lok Sabha
