MUMBAI: When Bihar speaks, India listens and this September, the microphone will be turned up to full volume. India News Manch 2025, the flagship political conclave from Itv Network’s India News, is set to storm into Patna’s Hotel Maurya on 12 September 2025, bringing together the who’s who of Indian politics just months ahead of the state’s high-stakes election.
Now in its legacy-making run, the Manch has built a reputation as one of the nation’s most influential forums. This year’s edition is particularly charged, with Bihar’s verdict expected to ripple far beyond its borders, shaping alliances, governance strategies and even the national democratic roadmap.
The conclave will see a powerhouse line-up of more than 20 leaders, including deputy CMs Samrat Chaudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha, BJP stalwarts Ravi Shankar Prasad and Syed Shahnawaz Hussain, Congress MPs Akhilesh Prasad Singh and Rajesh Ram, RJD’s Tejashwi Prasad Yadav, VIP’s Mukesh Sahani, Jansuraaj’s Prashant Kishor, RLM’s Upendra Kushwaha, and LJPR MP Shambhavi Choudhary. From Pappu Yadav to Dilip Kumar Jaiswal, the conclave ensures every major party and ideology has a voice on stage.
Beyond the political star power, the agenda is just as weighty: governance, economy, youth aspirations, equity, policy reform, and India’s global standing. With Patna as its stage, the forum will drill into how Bihar’s decisions could once again alter the balance of power across India.
“The future of Bihar is inseparable from the future of India,” said India News managing editor for Input Rakesh Singh. “This Manch will bring those voices to the national stage.” Echoing him, ITV Foundation founder Aishwarya Pandit Sharma noted: “By putting leaders and citizens on one platform, we bridge the gap between governance and grassroots voices.”
As anticipation builds, one thing is clear: this isn’t just another conclave. With Bihar at the crossroads of history, India News Manch 2025 promises fireworks, frank talk, and a front-row seat to democracy in action.
