Chatra Lok Sabha seat is the only constituency in the state which has never been represented by a local since the first elections were held here in 1957. This year, however, has been different. BJP benched its outgoing MP Sunil Kumar Singh, an outsider, after intense protests from a section of the party workers and fielded Kalicharan Singh, a local. Congress candidate KN Tripathi, an outsider too by the virtue of being a native of Palamu district, is also facing protests after his name was announced recently. Will Chatra break the trend of electing outsiders? Learn more about the local vs. outsider dynamics in Chatra's MP elections.
