The 2025 Bihar Legislative Assembly election for all 243 constituencies is scheduled to be held on October or November 2025.

Background

The previous assembly elections were held in October–November 2020. After the election, National Democratic Alliance formed the state government, with Nitish Kumar becoming Chief Minister. Later, In August 2022 Nitish Kumar led JD(U) snap ties with NDA and formed government with RJD led Mahagathbandhan. Later, In January 2024 Nitish Kumar led JD(U) snap ties with RJD led Mahagathbandhan and again formed government with BJP led NDA. Prashant Kishor, a political strategist, claimed his prediction scared them, leading to their exit from Mahagathbandhan. His next forecast is that JD(U) won't secure over 20 seats in the state election. He declared retirement if Janata Dal (United) exceeds 20 seats.
