Two newly elected Independent members of the Bihar Legislative Council have now extended support to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), according to reports.
Both Independents had earlier defeated candidates of the ruling alliance partner Janata Dal-United (JD-U) in their respective constituencies, making their support significant in the state’s political landscape.
The development comes shortly after their election and is being seen as a boost for the BJP in Bihar. Further details on their formal alignment have not been shared.
