Patna, Bihar: The results of the Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, held in two phases, were declared on Friday, 14 November, delivering a landslide victory to the NDA, which crossed the 200-seat mark. Ahead of the elections, Congress had hoped for a boost from Rahul Gandhi’s “Voter Rights Campaign”, which energized party workers across the state. However, the strategy failed to translate into votes at the ballot box, as the party suffered heavy losses.
