The Raghunathpur election has generated significant interest, with RJD's Osama Shahab taking a substantial lead over JD(U)'s Vikash Kumar Singh. The counting of votes began at 8:00 AM on Friday, with the Election Commission of India set to announce the results today, along with the outcomes for all other constituencies in Bihar. Raghunathpur recorded a voter turnout of 61.45%, with polling held on November 6 during the first phase of the state elections. The seat has traditionally been held by the RJD, with Harishankar Yadav winning both in 2015 and 2020. Osama Shahab, the RJD candidate and son of former RJD MP Mohammad Shahabuddin, is contesting for the first time. The electoral roll in Raghunathpur was updated for the first time in 22 years, following a Special Intensive Revision conducted on the directions of the ECI. The Model Code of Conduct remains in effect until the conclusion of the election process, ensuring free and fair polls. This year's election pits the JD(U)-BJP alliance against the RJD-Congress-led INDIA bloc, led by Tejashwi Yadav. The outcome is crucial for Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's bid to retain his position. As the results unfold, the Raghunathpur constituency will remain a key focus point in the Bihar election story.
