Awadhesh Singh Secures Victory in Hajipur with a Margin of 18,509 Votes Against RJD Candidate Deo Kumar Chaurasia News24 –
Awadhesh Singh wins by a massive margin in the Hajipur constituency, followed by Deo Kumar Chaurasia of the Rashtriya Janata Dal. Since the turn of the century, BJP has won the seat seven times consecutively. Nityanand Rai, the party nominee and currently a Union Minister of State in the Home Ministry, has secured four victories since the 2000 elections.
The current MLA, Awadhesh Singh, won the seat earlier in a 2014 by-election. Singh has been a protégé of Rai and went on to win the seat in 2015 and 2020 as well. In the recent past, BJP has been losing its grip over the voters, and hence it’s possible that the 2025 polls showcase a tight contest between BJP and RJD.
Hajipur is a predominantly rural constituency, with nearly 67% of its voters residing in rural areas, despite the inclusion of Hajipur town. The winning trends will be heavily influenced by the opinions of Scheduled Caste voters, who make up close to 21% of the electorate.
The ruling NDA alliance in Bihar will face a challenge in securing the support of the voters who belong to the SC tier.
