Tejashwi Yadav Leads by 916 Votes in Raghopur, 28 Rounds Left
Tejashwi Yadav Leads in Raghopur Seat

In a tense political battle, Tejashwi Yadav, the chief ministerial face of the Mahagathbandhan alliance, is maintaining a slender lead in the Raghopur constituency during the Bihar Assembly Election 2025 vote counting.

Current Vote Count Status

According to the latest update from the Election Commission of India, Tejashwi Yadav was leading his BJP rival, Satish Kumar Yadav, by 916 votes. This development comes after the completion of the second round of counting on 14th November 2025.

The political future of this high-profile seat remains highly uncertain, as a significant 28 more rounds of counting are still left to go. This leaves ample room for the political fortunes of the candidates to change dramatically as the day progresses.

A Historical Stronghold and Key Contenders

The Raghopur constituency is not just any electoral battleground; it is a traditional stronghold of the Yadav family. Over the years, it has been represented by RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav and his wife, Rabri Devi.

Currently, the seat is held by Tejashwi Yadav, the political heir of Lalu Prasad. In this election, he is locked in a triangular contest against BJP candidate Satish Kumar Yadav and JSP's Chanchal Singh.

The constituency witnessed a robust voter participation, with a final turnout of 64.01% during the polling phase, setting the stage for this closely watched result.

A High-Stakes Political Battle

All eyes are firmly fixed on Raghopur, as the outcome here is seen as a critical indicator of the Mahagathbandhan's performance and the future of its chief ministerial candidate. Tejashwi Yadav's ability to retain this family bastion is a major test of his political appeal and the alliance's strength against the BJP's machinery.

With the lead being so narrow and many rounds of counting remaining, the final result is far from decided, promising a day of high political drama in Bihar.
