Patna, August 3: The counting of votes for the Bankipur Assembly by-election commenced at 8 AM today. Ahead of the results, members of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) are optimistic about their candidate’s success. Preparations for celebrations are already underway, with plans to distribute 200 quintals of sweets.
Krisna Kumar Kallu, a member of the BJP’s state working committee, expressed confidence in Neeraj Kumar Sinha’s grand victory. “We are preparing for a significant celebration. We are making 200 quintals of sweets to share with the public. Sweets will be distributed to supporters starting at 11 AM,” he stated.
He added that the BJP’s victory is assured. “We are determined to ensure Neeraj Kumar Sinha wins from Bankipur,” he emphasized.
BJP worker Satyaprakash also predicted a substantial win for their candidate. “We have been preparing in advance to convey this message to the people.

He further mentioned that those with insincere intentions would vanish after the results. “We are fully confident in our candidate’s victory because we have worked hard on the ground.
