Breaking: Bihar Political Alliances Gear Up As NDA Claims 225 Seats Ahead Of Assembly Polls

Political activity in Bihar has intensified ahead of the 2025 Assembly elections, with both alliances staking claims over potential victories. BJP spokesperson Dr. Ajay Alok has boldly asserted that the NDA could win 225 out of 243 seats, emphasizing the public’s rejection of the opposition. Meanwhile, the Mahagathbandhan has also claimed that voters are inclined toward their leadership. The Election Commission is scheduled to announce official polling dates at 4:00 PM, after consultations with political parties regarding voting phases. Sources indicate that the election is likely to be conducted in two phases during the first week of November, with vote counting and results expected before 15 November.Political leaders emphasize development as the central theme, contrasting it with earlier elections characterized by law-and-order issues. The JD(U) and BJP are negotiating seat-sharing formulas, while the Mahagathbandhan continues preparations to field a united front. Congress leaders have confirmed that the alliance will announce its candidate list and leadership choices in the coming days. Observers note that this election could redefine Bihar’s political narrative, with voter turnout, particularly among women and first-time voters, playing a decisive role. All eyes are on the Election Commission’s official announcement, which will mark the formal start of the election process.
