The Election Commission of India is set to announce Bihar assembly election dates today, with voting to be completed by November 22. The electoral battle will feature a direct contest between Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's NDA coalition and the RJD-led Mahagathbandhan alliance, amid controversy over recent voter list revisions that saw a significant drop in registered voters. Prashant Kishor's Jan Suraaj will also debut, contesting all 243 seats in this politically significant state election.
