BJP leader Ajay Alok on Monday slammed the INDIA bloc over their constant attacks on the ruling alliance ahead of the Bihar Assembly election. Speaking with ANI, Ajay Alok said that the INDIA block "should worry about themselves" and work hard to win the trust of the people. "There are still 20 days left for the elections; work hard, win the trust of the people. What did the BJP do? What did Nitish do? Worry about yourself... What changes do they want to make in Bihar? Do they want the 'Jungle Raj' back?" he said.

Additionally, JD(U) leader Neeraj Kumar spoke about the NDA's seat-sharing arrangement. "The division of seats is the right of the national leadership, and in light of the resolve of the national leadership to form the government under the leadership of Nitish Kumar, the division of seats in NDA has been done," Kumar said. The NDA on Sunday officially announced its seat-sharing formula for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections. Under the arrangement, the BJP and JD(U) will contest 101 seats each, while the Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) will contest 29 seats.
