In the trends of vote counting for Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, the position of Jan Suraj Party seems to be becoming very weak. Especially in Chanpatia seat, the party’s famous face Manish Kashyap has got a big shock. By the counting of 8 rounds, he seems to be far away from the contest, while a tough fight continues between BJP and Congress.
BJP candidate Umakant Singh from Chanpatia seat has maintained the lead since the beginning. Till the 8th round he has received 30,290 votes and he is moving forward with full confidence. The continuous increase clearly shows that BJP’s hold in Chanpatia remains strong.
After BJP, the closest contest is given by Abhishek Ranjan of Congress. He has received 28,719 votes and remains at second position. There is not much difference between the two candidates, so the contest may become more interesting in the further counting. At present, Congress seems to be giving a tough competition to BJP.
Big blow to Manish Kashyap
Tripurari Kumar Tiwari alias Manish Kashyap, contesting the elections from Jan Suraj Party, seems to be limited to only 12,081 votes. Contrary to the expectations of his supporters, Manish Kashyap has slipped to third place on this seat. His lagging behind BJP shows a difference of more than 18 thousand votes, which is considered a big sign for Jan Suraj.
Marginal votes for other candidates
Independent candidates Mohammad Soeb and LJS. Party’s Bipin Tiwari has got very less votes. Mohammad Soyeb has got only 679 votes, while Bipin Tiwari has been able to reach only 663 votes. At the same time, 891 votes were cast on NOTA, which is more than the smaller candidates.
Jan Suraj Party’s weak performance across the state
Not only in Chanpatia, but from the trends found so far in entire Bihar, it is clear that Jan Suraj Party has failed to gain lead on any seat. The party’s big hopes were pinned on Manish Kashyap, but his performance also looks disappointing in the initial results.
