Congress won only 6 out of 61 seats
The Congress party, which is part of the opposition grand alliance, had fielded its candidates on 61 out of 243 assembly seats in Bihar. However, when the Election Commission of India (ECI) announced the election results after counting of votes on Friday (November 14, 2025), the Congress party, which was contesting on 61 seats, was reduced to only 6 seats.
Congress party won only 6 seats in Bihar including Valmikinagar, Chanpatia, Forbesganj, Araria, Kishanganj and Manihari assembly. At the same time, the victory margin of Congress in Forbesganj was only 221 votes, whereas in Chanpatia this margin was only 602 votes. In such a situation, the difference between the victory and defeat of Congress on these two seats was very less.
