Bihar Election 2025 Key Candidates: Nitish Kumar, Tejashwi Yadav and  Prashant Kishor in the ring as poll battle begins - The Economic Times

 

INTRODUCTION

 

Hey everyone! Today I’m answering one big question: Could the Bihar Election 2025 become a turning point in Bihar’s politics? Corruption and governance were attacked by the opposition; for example, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav accused the Nitish Kumar government of "institutionalising corruption" and misusing government schemes (like a women's outreach programme) for electioneering.

 The ruling alliance countered by criticizing the RJD's past ("jungle raj") and highlighting its own welfare record. A major flashpoint was the voter roll revision (Special Intensive Revision, SIR) carried out by the Election Commission. Opposition parties claimed the intensive revision was a partisan tool, alleging mass deletions of voters and promising protests or even an election boycott.

 

WILL BIHAR 2025 A TURNING POINT ?

 

Bihar has seen frequent political shifts, alliance changes, and leadership transitions over the years. But 2025 feels different.
This time, voters are more aware, more vocal, and more active — especially the younger generation. Social media discussions, public debates, and youth-led movements are already visible.Another factor is governance — voters are comparing promises with actual outcomes: development projects, employment, public services, and law and order.

So yes, 2025 could be a major turning point, depending on how people vote and what issues guide their decisions.

 

Bihar faces a severe unemployment crisis, particularly among youth and educated graduates. Many young Biharis are forced to migrate to other states for work due to lack of opportunities. Both the ruling NDA and opposition Mahagathbandhan  had made job creation and youth empowerment key promises, with pledges such as government jobs for every household, skill centers, and massive investment packages. Allegations of voter roll manipulation were made by the opposition Mahagathbandhan. The Election Commission carried out a Special Intensive Revision (SIR), resulting in mass deletions of over six million names of people, who had died, migrated out of the state or were duplicates, from electoral rolls. Opposition parties alleged these deletions disproportionately harmed minorities, women, and migrant workers, and launched campaigns against the alleged voter suppression. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has accused the government and Election Commission of allegedly stealing votes.
