Daughter. The contest on Bettiah seat in Bihar Assembly elections 2025 has now become more interesting. Rohit Shikaria, a well-known businessman of the city and councilor of ward number 17, has filed his nomination as an independent candidate today. Rohit Shikaria’s wife is the mayor of Bettiah Municipal Corporation, and now he himself is preparing to give a new direction to Bettiah by becoming an MLA. During the nomination, he said that I am contesting the elections as an independent candidate for the development of Bettiah and the expectations of the people. My wife is the mayor of the city, and if the public gives me a chance, then together we will make Bettiah a model city. Let us tell you that Rohit Shikaria was elected as ward councilor in 2022 and has become a well-known face due to his activism in local politics. Due to her contesting the elections as an independent candidate, a triangular contest is being considered in Bettiah Assembly. From this seat, BJP has fielded former Deputy Chief Minister Renu Devi, while candidates from Congress are also in the fray. Now it has to be seen how much influence businessman-turned-politician Rohit Shikaria can maintain among the public and whether he succeeds in writing a new story in the politics of Bettiah.
