The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Wednesday released its second list of 48 candidates for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections. With this announcement, AAP has now declared candidates for a total of 59 assembly constituencies out of the 243 seats.
The list was unveiled at the party's Patna office by AAP Bihar state president Rakesh Kumar Yadav, along with state co-in-charge Abhinav Rai and in-charge Ajesh Yadav. The candidates represent diverse social and professional backgrounds, spanning constituencies from West Champaran in north Bihar to Gaya in south Bihar.
This reflects AAP's strategy to contest across the entire state. Prominent names in the second list include Dr Jitender Kumar Yadav from Barharia, Rajendra Prasad Singh from Lalganj, Dr Rajesh Kumar Ratnakar from Mokama, and Madhumala Kumari from Belaganj.
On October 6, AAP had released its first list of 11 candidates as it formally entered the Bihar electoral fray, announcing its intention to contest all 243 seats. The inaugural list featured Meera Singh from Begusarai, Bhanu Bhartiya from the Kasba seat in Purnia district, Arun Kumar Rajak from Phulwari seat in Patna, Pankaj Kumar from Bankipur in Patna, Ashok Kumar Singh from Govindganj in Motihari, and Retd Capt Dharmraj Singh from the Buxar seat.
Addressing a press conference, AAP's state in-charge Ajesh Yadav expressed confidence in replicating the party's successful governance model from Delhi and Punjab in Bihar. He stated, “We have an approved model of growth and governance.
The work done by the Aam Aadmi Party is being discussed across the country. People hailing from the Purvanchal region had contributed immensely to our victory in Delhi.” Yadav further announced that the list of star campaigners would be released soon, adding, “Our top leaders, including Arvind Kejriwal, Sanjay Singh, and Bhagwant Mann, have all visited Bihar in the past.”
