Bihar’s Landslide Victory Sends Ripples to Delhi: Strong NDA Mandate to Boost Rajya Sabha Position

Patna: The resounding victory of the NDA in Bihar’s 2025 assembly elections is set to have an impact far beyond the state, reaching the corridors of power in Delhi.

Bihar Election Results Offer Lessons for SP: Akhilesh Yadav Must Focus Beyond Core Voters, Leverage PDA Formula

Lucknow: Even though the Samajwadi Party (SP) did not contest the recent Bihar Assembly elections, the results have sent a clear message to the party leadership. Analysts believe that the electorate has rejected politics based solely on caste equations, prioritizing development and good governance instead. The decisive defeat of the RJD underscores that relying solely on a core vote bank is no longer sufficient. Akhilesh Yadav, who led SP to the highest number of Lok Sabha wins from Uttar Pradesh in the 2024 elections, held 22 campaign rallies in Bihar, actively supporting alliance partners under the India coalition. While SP did not field candidates, the outcomes in Bihar offer strategic insights for the party. Political observers suggest that to remain relevant in upcoming election...

Bihar Assembly Election 2025: Complete Winners List – Who Won, Who Lost Across 243 Seats

After 15 years, the Bihar Assembly elections of 2025 have witnessed a stunning repeat of the NDA’s dominance.

Yogi Adityanath Outshines Lalu Prasad Yadav in Bihar Elections: Social Equations Redefined

Lucknow/Bihar: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has delivered a major political blow to RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav, shattering long-standing social equations in Bihar. The 2025 Bihar Assembly election results revealed a decisive shift, showing the influence of strong ground-level campaigning and strategic outreach. Unlike the overconfident campaigns of the past, BJP and NDA leaders actively engaged on the ground, strengthening their organizational base. Attempts to consolidate caste blocs in Bihar largely failed, with social and community-based strategies unable to sway results in favor of the Mahagathbandhan. Efforts by SP chief Akhilesh Yadav to push backward-caste, Dalit, and minority-centric PDA politics from Uttar Pradesh into Bihar met with limited success, while Rahu...

Nemo Wave’ Reshapes Bihar Politics — Women, Youth and Memories of Jungle Raj Rewrite the Mandate

‘ Bihar’s politics has witnessed a historic turning point this election. On one side, the “Nemo wave” swept across the state, and on the other, the NDA skillfully leveraged the women’s vote, first-time voters, and the deep public memory of Jungle Raj.The result was unprecedented—Bihar’s opposition was almost wiped out. Even today, the people of Bihar vividly recall a time when stepping out of homes after 4–6 PM was considered unsafe.Looting, murder, kidnapping, and rape had become disturbingly common. And most tragically, many of these crimes enjoyed political protection. Lalu–Rabri Era: Vote Capturing and Jungle Raj — A Bitter Reality As per my study of Bihar’s political landscape, the Lalu–Rabri government had built its electoral strength primarily on caste-based vote capturi...
