The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has finalised its seat-sharing arrangement for the 2025 Bihar Assembly elections. Both the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Janata Dal (United) [JD(U)] will contest 101 seats each, while smaller allies — LJP (Ram Vilas), HAM, and Rashtriya Lok Manch — will share the remaining 41 seats. JD(U) leader Sanjay Kumar Jha stated that the discussions were held amicably, reflecting the alliance’s unity. The NDA aims to consolidate its position and return Chief Minister Nitish Kumar to power with a strong electoral mandate.
