Korha Voters Reject Caste Politics, Demand Development | Katihar Election 2025

In this exclusive Witty Chokha ground report from Korha constituency in Katihar, journalist Gaurav Mishra uncovers the shifting political mood as Bihar heads toward the 2025 Assembly Elections.
Once driven by caste equations, voters in Korha now speak boldly about development, corruption, and system failures.

Locals accuse officials of demanding bribes for pension approvals, cutting ration quantities meant for the poor, and allowing middlemen to dominate welfare schemes.
Many express frustration over Nitish Kumar’s long rule, saying that promises of social justice have been replaced by bureaucratic harassment and unemployment.

With Korha historically swinging between Congress and BJP, the entry of the Jan Swaraj Party has turned the contest into a three-way fight.
Amid rising anti-incumbency against MLA Kavita Paswan, voters declare they will now vote for development, accountability, and honest leadership - not caste or religion.
