The Bihar Election Commission is announcing the results for Kalyanpur, Motihari, and Hilsa assembly seats, part of the state's 243-member legislative assembly. The counting of votes is underway, following a two-phase polling process held in November. The elections have taken place amidst a highly charged political atmosphere, with Chief Minister Nitish Kumar seeking to retain power amidst a growing challenge from the opposition. In the 2020 assembly elections, the NDA alliance, led by the BJP and JD(U), 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 hoping to secure another term. The opposition, led by Tejashwi Yadav's RJD-Congress alliance, aims to oust the long-serving CM, banking on anti-incumbency and promises of change. The Jan Suraaj Party (JSP) and Chirag Paswan's LJP are also in the fray, with the latter seeking to play kingmaker in case of a close contest. Today's election results will reveal how Bihar's voters have judged these competing claims and alliances in the assembly seats. Stay tuned for live updates from Kalyanpur, Motihari, Hilsa, and other constituencies.
