Araria Constituency, Bihar Election Results LIVE: The Sitting MLA Abidur Rahman (Congress) hopes to retain his stronghold after wins in 2015 and 2020. However, the early trends show Shagufta Azim of JDU taking the lead. The region is considered to be the stronghold of Congress and has zero BJP presence. Rahman, Shagufta Azim, and the wildcard entry of former IPS officer Shivdeep Wamanrao Lande, now contesting as an independent, further complicates the arithmetic.
Araria Constituency: Full of suspense!
Araria has six assembly segments and is known for surprising election results, making it an important battleground for both the NDA and the MGB. This year’s outcome may be shaped by its large Muslim population, its uneven development, and party strategies that view Araria as a sign of possible change in the Seemanchal region. The turnout in Araria often reflects the mood of eastern Bihar. As counting begins, people will closely watch the seat not only to see who wins but also to understand what the winning margin reveals about party strength, caste and community factors, and the direction of Bihar politics.
As of 10:30 am, JDU’s Shagufta Azim continues to lead in the Araria constituency, which has traditionally been a Congress stronghold.
