Not many gains for JD-U, BJP (Lalu has the last laugh in Bihar by-polls)

The Ruling National Democratic Alliance's victories in the Nalanda and Bhagalpur Lok Sabha by-elections have come more as a relief than cause for celebration to the JD-U and the BJP.

By retaining the seats, vacated by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Modi respectively, the ruling alliance has saved itself a few blushes. But there is little in the outcome to suggest the NDA is on firmer electoral ground than it was when it assumed office a year ago.

The main cause for concern was the voter turnout. Despite serious campaigning by top Bihar NDA leaders, it was just 30 per cent, indicating a lack of interest among the electorate.

The polls have also underlined the Railway Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav's clout in Bihar.

The RJD leader failed to make a mark in Nalanda where Nitish's man Ramswarup Prasad (1,71,592 votes) scored a comprehensive victory over Lalubacked JD-U rebel Arun Kumar (53,840 votes).

Posted on Fri Nov 10, 2006 at 03:52:18 AM EST
CPI's Gaya Singh, who was backed by all other UPA constituents including the Congress and Ram Vilas Paswan's Lok Janshakti Party stood a poor third (31,915 votes).

Lalu appears to have proved a point in Bhagalpur where his nominee, former Bihar Minister Shakuni Chaudhary, stood second behind BJP winner Syed Shahnawaz Hussain.

In doing so, he bettered CPI-M nominee Subodh Rai, who had the support of both the Congress and Paswan's Lok Janshakti Party .

Chaudhary (1,65,390 votes) lost to Shahnawaz (2,21,001) by just over 55,000 votes but left Rai (79,363 votes), confirming that Lalu Yadav remains the lynch pin of UPA politics in Bihar.

Lalu may now be expected to dictate the course of UPA politics in Bihar with enhanced authority, especially since the Congress had chosen to back the third-place left nominees in both the by-elections at the expense of the RJD.
