Bihar BJP to Analyze 'Poor' Lok Sabha Election Performance

Bihar BJP president Samrat Chaudhary announced the party's plans to analyze their poor performance in the recently concluded Lok Sabha elections. The NDA lost nine seats compared to 2019, while the INDIA bloc gained. Discussions are also underway for preparing for the 2025 assembly polls.

In an introspective move, Bihar BJP president Samrat Chaudhary on Thursday declared that the party will scrutinize the reasons behind its lackluster performance in the recent Lok Sabha elections. The NDA's tally took a hit, plummeting by nine seats compared to the 2019 elections.

The JD(U) lost crucial seats in Kishanganj, Katihar, Purnia, and Jahanabad, while the BJP faced defeats in Patliputra, Arrah, Buxar, Aurangabad, and Sasaram. Notably, the INDIA bloc clinched nine seats, and independent candidate Pappu Yadav secured a victory in Purnia.

Chaudhary, who doubles as the state's Deputy Chief Minister, emphasized that despite receiving 75 percent marks from the public (securing 12 seats), the NDA expected to win 39-40 seats. Plans are also in motion for the 2025 assembly polls under Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's leadership.
