From Patna to Champaran, from Chappra to Darbhanga or Motihari to Bhagalpur - the stage is all set for the assembly elections in Bihar. A state known to stand at the forefront of democratic dissent, Bihar is rooted in tradition but as always restless for change. And while the immediate focus is on the 243 MLAs who will make it to the new Bihar Assembly this election is not just about forming a government in Patna. It is about issues that have dogged Bihar for 3 quarters of a century. It is about Bihar's importance to Delhi. It is about youth and aspirations and equality and opportunity. It is about a whole host of important matters. This is NDTV's focus on why and how - BIHAR MATTERS.
