Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrated the NDA's historic victory in Bihar's 2025 assembly elections, praising the Election Commission while countering Rahul Gandhi's "vote chori" allegations. The NDA crossed 197 seats in the 243-member assembly, with BJP, JD(U), LJP(RV), and Rashtriya Lok Morcha performing strongly. Congress was reduced to single digits while RJD managed 30s. Modi thanked the EC for record 67.13% voter turnout highest since 1951 with women voters (71.6%) outnumbering men. He contrasted today's peaceful polls with Bihar's past "jungle raj" era of Maoist terror and booth capturing. Modi called Congress a "parjeevi" (parasite) party, warning allies it contributes nothing but seeks their votes. (PC: NDTV)
