Big loss to Grand Alliance and RJD in Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, RJD seems to be limited to only 24 seats, 25 seats are required for the Leader of Opposition. Even in 2010, Rashtriya Janata Dal could not get the post of Leader of Opposition.
Bihar Election Results 2025: As the results of Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 are coming out, difficulties are increasing for the Grand Alliance. For Lalu Yadav’s party Rashtriya Janata Dal, these election results are no less than a nightmare. The 2025 elections can be counted among the worst performances ever for RJD. Seeing the way RJD seems to be limited to around 24 seats, it seems that Tejashwi Yadav leader will not be able to save even the opposition chair.
25 MLAs required for Leader of Opposition
Let us tell you that to be the leader of opposition in the 243-seat Bihar Assembly, it is necessary to have 25 MLAs. In such a situation, Tejashwi Yadav’s party i.e. RJD will have to win at least 25 seats, only then he will be a contender for the opposition leader. At the same time, the condition of Congress, which considers itself the second largest party in the Grand Alliance, is worse than bad. She is leading on only 1 seat.
RJD got 75 seats in 2020
Let us tell you that in the 2020 assembly elections, Lalu Yadav’s party RJD had won 75 seats. At the same time, in 2025, it seems to be losing more than half of the seats as compared to the previous elections. At the same time, the Grand Alliance is currently leading on only 28 seats.
RJD did not get the post of Leader of Opposition even in 2010
Let us tell you that in 2010, Lalu Yadav’s party Rashtriya Janata Dal had contested elections on 168 seats, in which it could win only 22 seats. Due to this, RJD could not get the post of Leader of Opposition. In this election, Nitish’s party JDU got 115 seats, while BJP got 91 seats.
