The Bihar Election Result 2025 has exposed a dramatic shift in political momentum, with the NDA registering a dominant performance while the Congress Party faces one of its weakest showings in recent history. BJP secured 87 seats and JD(U) 76, reflecting a strong endorsement of the Nitish Kumar–Narendra Modi leadership. In contrast, Congress won only 6 seats out of the 56 it contested, marking a strike rate of barely 10%. Internal mismanagement, confused alliances, and inconsistent messaging contributed significantly to the party’s decline. Analysts note that Congress failed to consolidate its traditional Dalit–Muslim–upper-caste support base, while RJD retained just 36 seats, unable to replicate its earlier employment-promise momentum. Additionally, VIP failed to open its account. Strategic errors, leadership disconnect, and unsuccessful vote-transfer within the Mahagathbandhan further weakened the opposition. The electorate has clearly favored stability, development, and a cohesive NDA campaign.
