Bihar is preparing for Rajya Sabha elections to fill five vacant seats, with terms ending for members from RJD, JD(U), and RLM. Securing a seat requires 41 MLAs. The NDA, with 202 MLAs, is expected to win four seats comfortably, but needs additional support for a fifth. Potential BJP nominee Nitish Nabin and JD(U)'s Harivansh and Ram Nath Thakur are likely candidates. The opposition INDIA bloc faces challenges in securing any seats due to insufficient MLA support.
