Key Contestants in Patna Sahib

The Patna Sahib constituency, a significant seat in Bihar, saw a fierce contest primarily between two candidates: BJP’s Ravi Shankar Prasad, representing the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), and Anshul Avijit from the Congress. Both candidates campaigned vigorously, with the main contest revolving around these two figures.

Historical Context of Patna Sahib Constituency

The Patna Sahib parliamentary constituency was formed following the delimitation exercise, which redrew the boundaries and redefined constituencies. Since its inception, the seat has been a stronghold for the BJP. In the 2009 Lok Sabha elections, BJP leader Shatrughan Sinha won the seat, marking the beginning of the party’s dominance in the constituency. Sinha successfully retained the seat in the 2014 elections, further solidifying the BJP’s position.

In 2019, the BJP fielded Ravi Shankar Prasad, who continued the party’s winning streak by securing a decisive victory. This trend has persisted, with Prasad securing another win in the current election, thereby maintaining the BJP’s hold on the Patna Sahib seat since its creation.

Significance of the Victory

Prasad, a prominent leader and former Union Minister, has been a key figure in the BJP’s national and regional strategies. His successful campaign underscores the effective mobilization and outreach efforts undertaken by the party.
