The National Democratic Alliance is poised to retain power in Bihar with a significantly strengthened mandate, projected to win around 200 seats in the 243-member assembly. The BJP is leading in 91 seats and JD(U) in 79, outperforming rivals across all regions. The Mahagathbandhan secured only 37 seats, with RJD leading in 28.
