In an unprecedented twist during the Bihar 2025 Assembly Elections nomination process, Madhepura's Alamnagar constituency witnessed a unique turn of events. E. Naveen Kumar, also known as Naveen Nishad, has filed his nomination under both the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) banners.
This incident stems from ongoing seat-sharing tussles within the Grand Alliance, as precise allocations remain undetermined. Naveen Kumar, who previously contested from Alamnagar under the RJD ticket, is now standing as a candidate for the Vikassheel Insaan Party as well.
Naveen Kumar stated he is following party directives and will continue to act according to their guidance. Previously held by Mukesh Sahni's party, the control of this seat has now been absorbed into Grand Alliance's fold.
