The stage is set for a crucial showdown in Bihar as the Election Commission announces the results of the assembly elections 2025. The counting of votes is underway in the 243-member Bihar Legislative Assembly, with the ruling NDA, led by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, facing a stiff challenge from the opposition RJD-Congress alliance, led by Tejashwi Yadav. In the 2020 assembly elections, the NDA narrowly retained power with 125 seats, just above the majority mark of 122. This time, Nitish Kumar's JD(U)-BJP alliance, backed by HAM and other NDA partners, is seeking to secure another term. However, the RJD-Congress-led INDIA bloc is banking on anti-incumbency and promises of change to oust the long-serving CM. The Jan Suraaj Party (JSP), led by Prashant Kishor, is making its debut by contesting all 243 seats, while Chirag Paswan's LJP (Ram Vilas) is seeking to play kingmaker in case of a close contest. The results, which will be announced today, will reveal how Bihar's voters have judged these competing claims and alliances. According to the latest updates, the lead candidates in the constituencies of Madhubani, Sitamarhi, Benipatti, and Bisfi are: - Madhubani: Madhaw Anand (RLM) - Sitamarhi: Sunil Kumar Pintu (BJP) - Bisfi: Asif Ahmad (RJD) - Benipatti: Vinod Narayan Jha (BJP) Stay tuned for live updates as the results unfold.
