Chirag Paswan, leader of the Jan Adhikar Party, said his party has earmarked the 'A' category for certain seats, a move that could disadvantage coalition partners.
The Jan Adhikar Party has announced that it will allocate the 'A' category to a set of seats in the upcoming elections, a decision that has raised concerns among its coalition allies.
In a statement released earlier today, Chirag Paswan clarified that the party’s decision is based on demographic and electoral data, but he acknowledged that the move could affect the seat-sharing arrangements with partner parties.
Paswan warned that proceeding with the 'A' category allocation without consensus would be an injustice to the alliance, emphasizing the need for a collective approach to seat distribution.
The announcement comes as coalition partners prepare for negotiations on candidate nominations, and the issue may prompt further discussions on how to balance regional interests with broader electoral strategy.
