Rohini Acharya's decision to leave politics has created a stir in Bihar's political circles, coming after the Rashtriya Janata Dal's poor showing in the recent assembly elections, where the party won only 25 seats out of over 140 contested in the 243-member house.
JD(U) Spokesperson, Sanjay Jha, on Sunday took a jibe at Mahagathbandhan after the glorious win of National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, saying that they were offering "destruction." He hailed Bihar's Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for his good governance.
Jha asserted that the government would fulfil all its promises as mentioned in the manifesto and dedicate the next five years to the youth in the state.
The NDA registered a historic landslide victory in the 2025 Bihar Elections, winning 202 of the 243 seats in the state; meanwhile, the Mahagathbandhan could only secure 35 seats.
The newly formed Jan Suraaj Party, founded by election strategist-turned-politician Prashant Kishor, faced a major setback in the 2025 Bihar Assembly Election, failing to secure a single seat despite contesting in almost all 243 constituencies.
Anant Kumar Singh was arrested earlier, before the polling began in Bihar, by Patna Police in connection with the murder case of a Jan Suraaj supporter, Dularchand Yadav, the Patna Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Kartikeya Sharma said.
