The Bihar election results have delivered a major blow to the Congress, particularly to Rahul Gandhi, whose Voter Adhikar Yatra covered 1,300 km across 25 districts earlier this year. Designed to amplify his allegation of “vote theft” by the BJP and the Election Commission, the yatra was positioned as a mass-awareness campaign similar to his earlier Bharat Jodo initiatives.

The 2025 Bihar election delivered a decisive mandate for the BJP-JDU alliance, with the ruling bloc racing ahead of the Mahagathbandhan by over 160 seats.
