The Bankipur Assembly bypoll in Bihar witnessed an intense political battle between the BJP and Jan Suraaj founder Prashant Kishor, with around 33.5% of the 3.8 lakh voters casting their ballots till 5 pm. The election, necessitated by the resignation of BJP leader Nitin Nabin, was overshadowed by allegations from both sides.
