Bihar Election Prep Heats Up: BJP & RJD Dominate Booth-Level Agent Surge

The political temperature in Bihar is rising with increased activity surrounding the revision of voter lists. Since the announcement of the special intensive revision (SIR) on June 24th, the number of Booth Level Agents (BLAs) has seen a significant 13% increase, jumping from 1.38 lakh to 1.56 lakh.

BJP and RJD Lead the Charge

The two major players, BJP and RJD, account for a whopping 65% of these newly registered BLAs, demonstrating their commitment to grassroots engagement and mobilization. This surge in BLAs highlights the importance of these local representatives in ensuring a fair and transparent electoral process. They play a crucial role in verifying voter details, assisting with registration, and representing their parties at the polling booths.

Intensified Voter List Revision Underscores Election Focus

This intensified focus on voter list revision and the deployment of BLAs indicates that parties are actively gearing up for upcoming elections. The special intensive revision period allows for additions, deletions, and corrections to the voter list, ensuring its accuracy and comprehensiveness. The proactive approach by parties suggests a dynamic and closely contested election season ahead.
