'Jungle Raj vs Vikasvaad': Union Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat hails NDA win in Bihar Elections 2025

Union Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat applauds NDA's Bihar election win, calling it a clear mandate for development over "jungle raj" and rejection of opposition's false narratives.

"The main issue in the Bihar elections was 'jungle raj' vs 'vikasvaad' - Gajendra Singh Shekhawat"

Jodhpur, November 15

Union Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat on Saturday applauded the victory of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in the Bihar Assembly Election 2025.

"BJP and all alliance partners in the NDA displayed unity. The main issue in the Bihar elections was 'jungle raj' vs 'vikasvaad'," he said.

He took a swipe at the opposition, stating that the Bihar Elections are a standing example that people will not grant votes based on false promises and schemes, while shouting the "baseless vote chori allegations" to delude the public.

"When people had to elect one, they gave the NDA a resounding mandate and made it clear that the only political issue in this country would be development-based..." he said.

"The Bihar elections made it very clear to the country that the public will not accept the attempts to garner votes through false narratives, with baseless allegations like 'vote chori', and with attempts to mislead people about Constitutional institutions... They have made it clear that there is no place for politics of lies in this country," he added.

Meanwhile, the Bihar assembly elections were conducted across two phases on November 6 and 11, respectively. The counting of votes was done on November 14.

The NDA has registered an emphatic win in the Bihar Assembly polls, as the alliance has crossed the majority mark of 122 seats required to form the government in the state.

In the NDA, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won 89 seats, Janata Dal (United) won 85, Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) (LJPRV) won 19, Hindustani Awam Morcha (Secular) (HAMS) won five, and Rashtriya Lok Morcha won four seats.

In Mahagathbandhan, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) won 25 seats, Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) (Liberation) - CPI(ML)(L) - two, Indian Inclusive Party (IIP) - one, and Communist Party of India (Marxist) - CPI(M) - one seat.

All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) won five seats, and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) got one seat.

It's worth noting that Bihar recorded a historic 67.13% voter turnout, the highest since 1951, with women voters outpacing men (71.6% vs 62.8%).

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the NDA's impressive performance in the 2025 Bihar Assembly elections as the "victory of good governance, development, public welfare and social justice" and vowed to work with renewed vigour for the state's progress.

While I support development, I hope this victory doesn't make the government complacent. They need to deliver on their promises - better roads, jobs for youth, and healthcare facilities. The mandate comes with huge responsibility.

People have spoken loud and clear! 67% voter turnout is massive. When women come out in such large numbers to vote, it shows they want stability and development for their families. Bihar deserves better governance 💪

As someone who has worked in Bihar's rural areas, I've seen how infrastructure development has changed lives. But the government must ensure this reaches every corner of the state, not just urban centers.

The opposition's vote chori allegations were indeed baseless. Election Commission conducted fair elections and people voted for development agenda. Time for opposition to do some soul-searching instead of blaming others.
