Bihar's Panchayati Raj Minister, Deepak Prakash, has announced that delimitation will be carried out across the state before the upcoming Panchayat elections. Following this, a new reservation roster will be determined, and only then will the elections be conducted. The minister made these remarks during a reception organized by Rashtriya Lok Morcha party workers in Sonbarsha Raj, Saharsa district.

On Friday morning, while traveling from Patna to Madhepura, Minister Deepak Prakash was warmly welcomed by party workers at a private hotel located at Manori Chowk in Nagar Panchayat Sonbarsha Raj. He was felicitated with garlands and traditional stoles. Young social workers from Samda village in Saur Bazar were also present at the event. Key party functionaries, including Pankaj Kumar, District President of Rashtriya Lok Morcha Patna East; Engineer Rajesh Kumar Kushwaha, State General Secretary; Archana Anand, District President; and Alok Kumar Singh, State President Bihar, were in attendance.

Speaking to the media, Minister Prakash stated that the Election Commission is actively working in this direction, and the state government is providing all possible cooperation. However, he declined to provide a tentative date for the Panchayat elections. The minister clarified that the authority to set the timeline for delimitation rests with the Election Commission, and the Panchayati Raj Department does not directly intervene in this process. Following the minister's statement, discussions regarding the preparations for the Panchayat elections have intensified in political and administrative circles across the state.
