Bihar Elections 2025: Here Are The Winners With Highest Margins - Full List

The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has registered a decisive victory in the high-stakes Bihar Assembly elections, paving the way for Nitish Kumar to secure a projected fifth term as Chief Minister.

The polls, widely viewed as a crucial test of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's national popularity and a referendum on Chief Minister Kumar's anti-incumbency factors, saw the NDA alliance triumphantly sweep the contest. Analysts suggest the Mukhyamantri Rojgar Yojana scheme was a significant factor driving the alliance's success.

The victorious NDA comprised the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Janata Dal (United), Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas), Hindustani Awam Morcha (Secular), and Rashtriya Lok Morha. They overcame a challenge from the Mahagathbandhan, led by the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and including the Congress party, CPI (Marxist-Leninist), CPI, CPI (Marxist), and Vikasheel Insaan Party (VIP).

Key Winners and Losers in the High-Stakes Election

Mahagathbandhan Leader Secures Key Seat
Despite the overall defeat, the Mahagathbandhan found a moment of relief in Raghopur. RJD's Chief Ministerial candidate, Tejashwi Prasad Yadav, secured a crucial victory with 1,18,597 votes, defeating BJP's Satish Kumar (1,04,065 votes). The incumbent MLA and Leader of the Opposition maintained his dominance in the family stronghold, defeating Satish Kumar Yadav for the third consecutive time.

Youngest MLA
The elections introduced a new face as popular singer and BJP candidate Maithili Thakur (25) emerged as the state's youngest MLA. Making her political debut, Thakur secured a victory in the Alinagar Assembly constituency with 84,915 votes, defeating RJD veteran Binod Mishra (63) by a margin of 11,730 votes.

Chirag Paswan's Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) delivered an exceptional performance, proving critics wrong with an impressive strike rate. Paswan noted on Saturday that the results were a "befitting reply to those who underestimated him." The LJP(RV) has already won eight seats and is leading on 11 others out of the 29 seats it contested. Paswan confidently predicted that Nitish Kumar would return as Chief Minister.
