Patna, November 10: A day before the second phase of the Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, a hoarding with the slogan "25 se 30, phir se Nitish" (From 2025 to 2030, Nitish once again) was spotted in Patna. The hoarding is drawing attention as the political temperature rises in the state capital.

Phase 1 of Bihar Elections

The first phase of the Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, which was held on November 6 witnessed a record voter turnout of 64.66%, the highest ever in the state’s electoral history. Polling was conducted across 121 constituencies in 18 districts, covering an electorate of nearly 3.75 crore voters.

The Election Commission reported that voting remained largely peaceful, with only a few isolated incidents of disturbance, including an attack on a deputy chief minister’s convoy.
