Electoral History of Kumhrarh Constituency in Bihar

   One of the assembly constituencies located in the Patna district of Bihar, Kumhrarh had elected in the last general assembly polls to Bihar in 2010 Arun Kumar Sinha of the BJP who had trouncing his nearest Lok Janashakti Party (LJP) rival Md. Kamal Parwez by a thumping margin of 67808 votes.

   In the only assembly election to Kumhrarh, which came into being before the last general assembly elections in 2010 following the recommendations of the Delimitation Commission, while Arun Kumar Sinha, currently BJP chief whip in Bihar assembly, had polled 83425 votes, the LJP candidate received 15617 votes and forfeited his deposit.

   The Congress nominee Kapildeo Prasad Yadav came third with 9215 votes.

   In 2010 the Janata Dal (United) did not field its candidate for the Kumhrarh assembly seat because it was in alliance with the BJP at that time. However, as things stand today, the BJP and the JD (U) have parted ways and the Lok Janashakti Party (LJP), then an ally of the RJD, is now a part of the BJP led NDA, the ruling dispensation at the Centre.

   In 2010 the BJP had won 91 seats whereas the JD (U) managed to claim 115 seats, becoming the single largest party. While the RJD put up a dismal performance with only 22 seats, the Congress was able to win only four.

   Kumhrarh is one of the six assembly constituencies that unite to form the Patna Sahib parliamentary constituency currently represented by Shatrughan Sinha of the BJP who retained the seat by defeating his nearest Congress rival Kunal Singh of the Congress by an impressive margin of 2,65,805 votes in the last parliamentary elections in 2014. The JD (U) candidate Dr. Gopal Prasad Sinha was relegated to the third place.

   Digha, Bakhtiarpur, Bankipur, Patna Sahib and Fatuha are the other assembly constituencies falling under Patna Sahib Lok Sabha seat.
