The crucial results for the Bihar Assembly elections 2025 are being declared today, determining the state’s political direction. A keenly watched electoral battle is unfolding between the established National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and the challenger Mahagathbandhan (MGB), spearheaded by Tejashwi Yadav. The debut of Jan Suraaj, the party founded by Prashant Kishor, adds a unique dimension to this election.
The recent polls recorded an impressive voter turnout of 67.13%, with women voters demonstrating exceptional engagement. This high level of participation across the state sets the stage for a potentially pivotal election outcome. The counting procedures are in place to ensure accuracy and transparency for all 243 seats in the Assembly.
The primary contest is defined by the two major blocs: the NDA, comprising parties like the BJP and JDU, and the Mahagathbandhan, which includes RJD and Congress. The campaign narratives revolved around the NDA’s developmental agenda versus the MGB’s focus on social justice and employment.
Exit poll predictions generally lean towards the NDA securing another term, but the Mahagathbandhan is confident of achieving a decisive win. The counting day has seen heightened political discourse, with opposition leaders expressing concerns about the electoral process, which have been met with firm responses from ruling party representatives. The results will ultimately reveal the electorate’s choice for Bihar’s governance.
