Bihar Assembly Election 2025: In a significant turn of events before the Bihar Assembly Elections, the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and JP Nadda in Bihar is aiming for over 80 MLAs but the party faces a credibility crisis due to Prashant Kishore’s allegations against Deputy CM Samrat Chaudhary, State President Dilip Jaiswal, and Health Minister Mangal Pandey among the other challenges.
Here are all the details you need to know about how BJP is planning to emerge as the largest party in Bihar.
How is BJP planning Bihar Assembly Elections?
Readers should note that BJP sees Chaudhary as a future leader, but his role as the electoral face is now under question. To rebuild its image, the BJP is aiming to project clean candidates and replace unpopular MLAs in the 2025 Assembly Elections.
Prashant Kishore’s allegations against BJP?
For the first time in Bihar politics, the BJP has emerged as the largest party, with 80 MLAs today. However, maintaining this position in the 2025 assembly elections will not be easy. The party will have to contest over 100 seats and achieve a win rate of over 68 percent, which is challenging. Meanwhile, Prashant Kishore’s allegations against Deputy CM Samrat Chaudhary, State President Dilip Jaiswal, and Health Minister Mangal Pandey have damaged the BJP’s credibility.
How is BJP reacting to allegations?
Taking action against the accused leaders is necessary for political integrity, but this seems difficult in Bihar’s caste-based politics. Samrat Chaudhary belongs to the Kushwaha community, and taking action against him before the elections would mean angering this vote bank. Consequently, the BJP has adopted a wait-and-see policy and will likely refrain from taking any major steps until the elections.
