Bihar Election 2025 Update: Senior Election Commission officials are camping in Patna to review preparations for the Bihar Assembly elections. Meetings have been held with political parties there. Now, everyone is wondering when the Election Commission will announce the voting dates.
It is believed that the election dates will be announced before Karva Chauth. Speculations suggest that the Chief Election Commission may announce the election dates in Patna on October 6 or 7, 2025. The final voter list from the special intensive revision has also been released. Now, everyone is eagerly awaiting the announcement of the dates.
The question on everyone's mind is how many phases the Bihar Assembly elections will be held this time. This mystery will only be resolved after the Chief Election Commission's announcement, but it is expected that the elections will be held in three phases. Official details of the phases have not yet been released.
The opposition has raised numerous questions about the SIR voter list. Congress and RJD have accused the Election Commission and the Modi government of vote theft. However, the Election Commission clarified the opposition's allegations, calling them baseless.
The schedule for the Bihar Assembly elections may not yet be finalised, but politicians are already preparing their positions. From the NDA to the Grand Alliance, and Prashant Kishore's Jan Suraj Party, emerging as a third option, are engaged in a full-fledged contest.
Seat-sharing negotiations between the NDA and Grand Alliance are currently pending. A final decision on seat-sharing between the two alliances can only be made after the seat-sharing agreement is finalised.
The NDA will field Nitish Kumar, while the Grand Alliance will field Tejashwi Yadav. In the 2020 Assembly elections, the RJD emerged as the number one party, winning 76 seats. JDU, which was in power for five years, was in third position.
