Bihar 2025 results: Congress leads in one seat along Voter Adhikar Yatra route, RJD and Left in none

In the 31 Assembly Constituencies of Bihar where the Mahagatbandhan (Grand Alliance) conducted its 1300 km Voter Adhikar Yatra across more than 20 districts, the Congress was leading in one seat, while the Rashtriya Janata Dal and the Left parties failed to lead in any. These results are based on trends observed as of 7:30 PM on Friday.

In contrast, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won all 18 seats that it had contested in the 31 Assembly Constituencies along the yatra route in the 2025 Asssembly Elections. Meanwhile, the Janata Dal (United) is trailing in only one of the eight seats it contested along the route.

In the 31 seats, the RJD had fielded 14 candidates, the Congress 16 candidates and the left parties together had fielded one candidate in the 2025 Bihar Elections.  

The table shows the party-wise number of seats contested and the strike rate in 2025 and 2020 Bihar Assembly elections.

In contrast, during the 2020 Assembly Elections, the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) had won 40% of the 15 seats it contested, while the Congress had secured victories in 33% of the 15 seats it contested, along the Voter Adhikar Yatra route. Consequently, the strike rates of the BJP and JD(U) in 2020 were significantly lower compared to their performance in 2025.

The table shows the seats along the rally route and the parties leading or winning them in the 2025 Bihar Assembly Elections as of 7:30 PM on Friday. 

The only seat that the Congress is leading from is Araria. 

The Voter Adhikar Yatra, which lasted for 16 days, was promoted by the Congress as an effort to spotlight alleged irregularities in the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. The party contended that widespread voter deletions risked excluding eligible people from welfare schemes and compromised the integrity of the electoral process.
