Bihar Assembly Election Results 2025 Live: Anticipation​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ of the election outcome dominates the atmosphere in the Bihar. The vote counting will take place on Friday, 14 November 2025. The two major coalitions, the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and the opposition Mahagathbandhan (MGB), are showing an open bravado of winning the election. From Patna to Purnia, party offices are lively with the work going on. Voters are preparing for the elections and the election experts are analysing the election results, the voter turnout and the polling booth visits statistics.

The high voter turnout is one of the most prominent features of this election. The state had a voter turnout rate of about 67.14%, which was the highest ever for Bihar since 1951. Also, in just the second phase, the voter turnout was approximately 66.91%, and the women voter turnout was an incredible 71.6%.

Such a turnout reflects well on the engagement of the public. It remains to be seen whether this will bring about continuity to the government or a change of it, but it clearly shows that people wanted their voices to be heard in Bihar. Both the NDA and the Mahagathbandhan say that it is them who have won the hearts of the people.

Exit Polls & Expectations

Exit polls have already sketched out a scenario while the state is waiting for the actual results, and the scenario is mostly an NDA one. Different agencies have reported the following:

• Axis My India projected the NDA would win 121-141 seats, the MGB 98-118.
• Today’s Chanakya set the dramatic level for the outcome way higher: NDA around 160 seats, MGB around 77, and others about 6.

Since the majority mark in Bihar is 122 seats, a seat count between 140 and 160 would provide the NDA with a comfortable level of support. Though Mahagathbandhan is quite confident of their position on the surface, it seems as if they are in the position of a runner trying to catch up. They are relying on last-minute changes, higher mobilisation of their core base and the possibility that polling stations remain unnoticed.

The ruling alliance sees the green light in front of them. Party workers in the BJP, Janata Dal (United) (JD(U)), and other allies are already in the mood for victory. They are celebrating by buying sweets (ladoos) beforehand, preparing victory slogans, and projecting a narrative of a massive win.

Besides the sheer joy of winning, good fortune and triumph on the horizon, prominent leaders have been vocal in that only the victory itself is not enough but what really matters is that it should be achieved with a strong mandate. The NDA argues that its combination of development credentials, anti-liquor policy in Bihar, and social-coalition strength gives it an ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌edge.

Mahagathbandhan Expectations

On the other side, the Mahagathbandhan is far from conceding defeat. The alliance, led by Tejashwi Yadav of the RJD and supported by the Congress and others, is projecting a message of change. According to them, though the exit polls favour NDA, the “people’s verdict” could still favour the Mahagathbandhan. Tejashwi himself has said that his party and supporters are ready to handle any “unconstitutional activity” during the counting.

There are also serious allegations being made: The MGB and allied groups have raised questions about EVM-handling, truck movements near counting centres (notably in Rohtas district), and alleged pre-emptive vote manipulation.

The Final Hours Before Counting

With less than 24 hours to go before the results are declared, the mood is electric. Security has been stepped up around counting centres. The Election Commission of India has extended Model Code of Conduct restrictions in critical areas to ensure law and order during this delicate juncture.

On the ground:

In Patna and other major towns, sweets are being distributed by NDA supporters ahead of results.

Party offices are keeping count of supporters, arranging large screens for live results, and preparing for both celebration and quick transition depending on verdict.

Many voters are already watching exit-poll results, readying themselves for the moment of truth.
