Voting Underway Across the State
Voting is currently taking place across 122 constituencies in 20 districts, with nearly 3.7 crore voters eligible to cast their ballots.
This phase is particularly significant as it will largely determine the formation of the next Bihar government.
Chief Minister Nitish Kumar also took to X (formerly Twitter) to encourage voter turnout, stating, “In democracy, voting is not only our right but also our duty. Today, voting for the second phase of the Bihar Legislative Assembly elections is taking place, all voters are urged to exercise their voting rights without fail. Vote and inspire others to do so as well. Vote first, then refreshments!”
लोकतंत्र में मतदान केवल हमारा अधिकार ही नहीं, दायित्व भी है।
