New Delhi: As counting for the Bihar Assembly Election 2025 continues and early trends show the NDA in the lead, the BJP on Friday said the results are expected to be favourable and indicate a grand victory for the alliance. The party further stated that the Congress will be wiped out from the state, and the people of Bihar have completely rejected ‘jungle raj.'
Speaking to IANS, BJP national spokesperson Tuhin Sinha said, “The results are expected to be favourable, pointing towards a grand victory for the NDA. By the time all results are declared, the alliance is likely to secure over 160-170 seats. The people have completely rejected the ‘jungle raj’. Our ‘MY factor (Mahila-Yuva)’ is far more influential and powerful than their factor. Bihar is now ready to move towards new heights.”

BJP MP Praveen Khandelwal said, “It is absolutely certain that the Congress will be wiped out; there is no doubt about it. Congress engages in negative politics, and there is no place for such politics in the country. The BJP will emerge as the largest party, and the NDA will form the government.”
BJP leader Prem Shukla added, “These are only the initial trends, and even in the final results, the NDA is certain to receive a massive mandate. After this overwhelming support, the NDA government will once again be formed in Bihar. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the people of Bihar had already decided to give a resounding mandate to the NDA.”
Meanwhile, the early trends show the ruling NDA taking a considerable lead over the Mahagathbandhan.
