Patna, Oct 13 (IANS) The Jan Suraaj on Monday released its second list of 65 candidates for the upcoming Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, which includes 20 reserved seats (19 for SC and 1 for ST) and 45 general seats.
The list was announced by the party’s national president, Uday Singh, who said the selection reflects Jan Suraaj’s commitment to ensuring representation for all sections of society.
“According to our promise to give representation to every community, candidates from the largest Extremely Backward Class group (10 Hindu, 4 Muslim) are being announced from 14 seats, 10 from the Other Backward Class and 14 from the Minority Class,” Singh said.
He further added, “Fulfilling our commitment to give participation to eligible Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribe candidates on general seats, one Scheduled Caste candidate is being fielded from the Harnaut assembly constituency in Nalanda district.”
According to the list, Dr Shahnawaz Alam, a well-known physician from Siwan, will contest from Badhariya.

The Jan Suraaj, led by Prashant Kishor, has declared that it will contest all 243 seats in Bihar independently, without forming any alliance.
The Jan Suraaj leader has already started the election campaign from the Raghopur Assembly constituency of Vaishali district.
He is aggressively campaigning in Bihar and targeting both the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and the Grand Alliance (GA).
