The meeting, attended by Congress Bihar in-charge Krishna Allavaru and state party chief Rajesh Ram, addressed the reasons behind the party’s poor performance in the state.

The saffron party sees the Bihar results as a morale booster ahead of next month's local body elections in Kerala and the Assembly elections to be held in April/ May next year.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has raised serious allegations against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), claiming that several of its leaders cast votes in both the Delhi and Bihar Assembly elections, thereby violating election norms.
She claimed that the NDA government is the true guarantor of development, security, and stability, in the state, adding that the days of 'Jungle Raj' are no more, and that Bihar is set to move forward on the road to progress.
