Massive Electoral Exercise Underway in Bihar
The stage is set for a significant democratic exercise in Bihar as 3.7 crore eligible voters prepare to cast their votes in the 2025 Assembly Elections. These voters will determine the political future of 1,302 candidates who are contesting across 122 assembly constituencies in this crucial electoral phase.
Key Districts Going to Polls
The electoral battle will be particularly intense in seven important districts that share international borders with Nepal. These districts include West Champaran, East Champaran, Sitamarhi, Madhubani, Supaul, Araria and Kishanganj. The strategic location of these border districts often influences voting patterns and political outcomes.
Polling Schedule and Significance
All these constituencies are scheduled to go to polls on November 11, 2025, marking a pivotal moment in Bihar's political landscape. The extensive preparation by the Election Commission ensures that voting will be conducted smoothly across all polling stations.
The high number of candidates reflects the competitive nature of Bihar politics, with multiple political parties and independent candidates vying for electoral success. With such a substantial voter base, the outcomes in these 122 seats could significantly influence the formation of the next state government.
Security arrangements have been strengthened, particularly in the border districts, to ensure free and fair elections. The sharing of borders with Nepal adds an additional layer of complexity to the security deployment and monitoring efforts.
