Large scale elections are to be held across the country in the year 2026. Assembly elections will be held in important states like Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Assam and West Bengal. Apart from this, elections are also to be held on 75 seats of Rajya Sabha. The seats of the Upper House will become vacant in April, June and November 2026, which may see a change in the balance of power between the NDA and the India Bloc. In the upcoming elections, 5 Rajya Sabha seats from Bihar and 10 seats from Uttar Pradesh will be vacant. Apart from this, seats will also be vacant in Maharashtra, Jharkhand, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu and many north-eastern states.

Crisis on return of these big leaders
Senior leaders whose tenure is ending in 2026 include Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda, Digvijay Singh, Sharad Pawar and Union ministers Hardeep Singh Puri, BL Verma, Ravneet Singh Bittu and George Kurien. The political future of these leaders is uncertain, as it remains to be seen whether they will return to Parliament or will be replaced by new faces.

5 seats of Bihar in Rajya Sabha will become vacant in April and 7 more seats of Maharashtra will become vacant in November 2026. Additional seats will also be vacant in Jharkhand, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, West Bengal and Tamil Nadu. This period is a concentrated phase of changes in the Upper House, which will affect several states simultaneously.

10 seats of UP will be vacant
10 seats in Uttar Pradesh are also going to become vacant by November 2026. The tenure of the members of Madhya Pradesh, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh will also end in the same period, due to which the scope of change will increase even further.

Currently NDA has 129 seats in Rajya Sabha, while the opposition has 78 seats. The 2026 elections may prove to be an important contest, which may change the balance of power in the Upper House and may also influence the party’s strategies in the future.

The tenure of these leaders will end in Bihar
5 Rajya Sabha seats will become vacant in Bihar on April 9 and elections are likely to be held by March. The leaders whose tenure is ending include RJD’s Prem Chand Gupta and Amarendra Dhari Singh, JDU’s Harivansh Narayan Singh and Union Minister Ramnath Thakur, besides Upendra Kushwaha of Rashtriya Lok Morcha.

‘Democracy is under attack in India’, Rahul Gandhi went to Germany and raised questions on the country’s agencies, surrounded BJP

The exit polls that came after the voting for Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 have created a tremendous stir in the politics of the state. This time the trend of results does not seem to be leaning towards any one side. While some surveys are giving a slight lead to the NDA, many agencies are telling the Grand Alliance (INDIA Bloc) to be near the threshold of power. Now the entire state is waiting for the results to come on 14th November.

The figures of news channels and survey agencies are very interesting this time. In some exit polls, the grand alliance led by Tejashwi Yadav seems to be reaching more than 130 seats, while the NDA is in the range of a little above 100. In other surveys, the contest is so close that both the alliances are seen almost equal on the majority line of 122 seats. Overall, according to the average data of four major survey agencies, the Grand Alliance is seen getting 120–130 seats, while the NDA is seen getting 110–120 seats.

TV live exit poll big relief for Tejashwi Yadav

The most talked about TV Live Exit Poll has given good news for the Grand Alliance this time. According to the survey, Grand Alliance may get 130 to 144 seats, while NDA is said to get between 95 to 109 seats. If this estimate proves correct then the return of Tejashwi Yadav to power in Bihar is considered almost certain.

Journo Mirror Survey: Public in mood for change

Journo Mirror Exit Poll figures also present almost the same picture. Here also the Grand Alliance looks strong on 130–140 seats, while the NDA is limited between 100–110 seats. This trend of two major agencies shows that the people of the state seem to be in a mood for change this time.

Opinion polls are evenly contested, suspense continues

Janmat exit poll has made the contest more interesting. In this survey, NDA has been shown between 113-125 seats and Grand Alliance between 111-123 seats. This situation shows that both the alliances are almost equal on the majority line of 122 seats. A small vote difference can completely change the direction of power.

News Pinch AI Survey Slight lead for NDA

News Pinch AI Politics Survey has made the election battle of Bihar more complicated. Here NDA is expected to get 121 seats and Grand Alliance is expected to get 119 seats. That means this is a photo-finish match, in which even minor changes can reverse the results.

Indication of repeat of situation like 2020

Political experts say that almost the same picture was seen in the year 2020 also. Even then the exit polls had given lead to the Grand Alliance, but in the final results NDA had formed the government with a very small margin. This time also the same suspense continues. Will history be repeated, or will change of power begin in Bihar?

Political activity intensifies before the results

Political turmoil has intensified in Patna, Darbhanga, Bhagalpur and Gaya. Strategic meetings are going on in the alliance offices and the candidates are in touch with supporters in their respective areas. Before the counting of votes, every party is claiming victory, but the real picture will become clear only on November 14.

Many surveys have been conducted so far regarding Bihar Assembly elections 2025. The attitude of Phalodi Satta Bazaar of Rajasthan, which places bets on victory or defeat in elections, has also come to light. Speculators of Phalodi betting market believe that this time also NDA government can be formed in Bihar. According to the latest predictions of the speculative market, the NDA alliance is likely to get 135-138 seats, which is much more than the election survey.

On the other hand, if we talk about the grand alliance, according to speculators they can get only 93 to 96 seats. However, the bookies of Phalodi betting market have not issued any opinion regarding the victory or defeat of any individual candidate.

Grand alliance has lead in Vote Vibe survey
Earlier in the survey of Vote Vibe, the Grand Alliance was said to be ahead. When people were asked in Bihar which alliance would win this time, 34.7 percent people said that the Grand Alliance would win. At the same time, 34.4 percent people said that this time also the NDA alliance will win. 12.3 percent people said that Jan Suraj would win. 10.1 percent people said that they could not say anything.

What did the founder of Vote Vibe tell?
Vote Vibe founder Amitabh Tiwari said while talking to a channel that this time triangular elections are being held because of Jan Suraj. There is still doubt about whose party Prashant Kishore will get more votes. He also told that the grand alliance seems to be getting some benefit from Tejashwi Yadav’s promise of government job in every house. He also said that this time the entry of Prashant Kishore in Bihar elections has completely turned it into a triangular contest. In such a situation, a state of confusion is being seen among the people.

Cyclone Montha: Big impact of Montha in UP, Jharkhand, Odisha, ‘Lightning will occur with strong winds, alert of heavy rain’

Now only a few days are left for Bihar Assembly elections. In such a situation, the round of allegations and counter-allegations has also intensified. Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi, while talking to news agency ANI on Sunday (October 26, 2025), fiercely targeted the Grand Alliance and especially RJD.

He said that even in the Lok Sabha elections, the leaders of the Grand Alliance had tried to mislead the public. Then he told the voters that the Constitution was in danger. Somewhere it had an impact on the elections, hence NDA’s seats reduced. These people are trying to create the same kind of atmosphere again.

What will happen if the Grand Alliance government is formed?

He further said that if by mistake the Grand Alliance government is formed then these people will make excuses that there is no money to do the work. What should we do if they (NDA government) have spent all the money? The minds of these people are full of dishonesty.

‘Donkeys and dogs were seen on the bed’

Taking aim at Tejashwi Yadav, Manjhi said that during the rule of his father (Lalu Yadav), donkeys and dogs were seen on the beds in the government hospital. Today, hundreds of patients are treated daily in those hospitals. His father (Lalu Yadav) did not do any work for Bihar after being in power for 15 years. Tell us how many medical colleges he built and how many technical colleges he built.

‘These people are doing politics of appeasement’

Manjhi said that Bihar has come on track under Nitish government and today everyone is moving forward. Despite this, these people are doing politics of appeasement. These people are tricking the Muslims, while everyone in the country is getting the food grains, are the Muslims not getting it? Similarly, everyone is getting the benefits of all the schemes equally.

He further said that now no one will believe whatever Tejashwi Yadav is saying and doing. On the question asked about Waqf, Manjhi said that these people had also torn the Women’s Reservation Bill in the Parliament. Even after these people created so much ruckus regarding triple talaq, that law was made.

At the same time, the clash over seat sharing is going on between Congress and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), which are part of the Grand Alliance. The parties in NDA are taking a dig about this. After Union Minister Chirag Paswan, now Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi has targeted the Grand Alliance.

While talking to news agency ANI on Tuesday (October 21, 2205), Jitan Ram Manjhi said that the people in Congress and RJD or the Grand Alliance are all for their personal interests, so wherever personal interests are concerned, it is natural to have differences of opinion. Raising the question, Manjhi said that now they (Grand Alliance) are saying that they are having friendly competition on many seats, can this also happen?

‘If given a chance, we will also interfere in government formation’
On the question of friendly competition between RJD and Congress, Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi said that the public will answer this in the elections. If you cannot remain united in the alliance, then even if you get a chance, you will interfere in forming the government. You will form a government today and it will break tomorrow.

‘Unless there is a stable government, development is not possible’
Hindustani Awam Morcha (HAM) party chief Manjhi said that unless there is a stable government, no state or country will develop. This is possible only with NDA. Therefore, NDA government will be formed in the state and the state will be served. He further said that the double engine government is for public service, state service, maintaining law and order and removing unemployment in the state, but they (leaders of the grand alliance) are contesting elections only to get power.

Did PM Modi promise not to buy oil from Russia? Congress asked the government on Trump’s claim

Bihar assembly elections are now near. This time a very close fight is being seen between NDA and India Bloc. Talking to a news channel about this, senior journalist Ajit Dwivedi said that right now the BJP-JDU alliance seems to be benefiting and there are many reasons for it. He said that governments are losing very little these days. If we look at it, in a way, a phase of pro-incumbency is going on, the reason for this is due to various schemes.

He said that due to this reason NDA has an advantage and India Block is still laxing all these things. He further said that Tejashwi Yadav is on one side, the Grand Alliance is on the other. At the same time, Nitish Kumar is transferring money to banks today. People are trusting him because the money is coming in today’s date. Tejashwi Yadav is promising jobs for every household.

How is pro-incumbency in Bihar?
Regarding pro-incumbency, he said that one factor is that he sent Rs 10,000 to the accounts of women. These have come to his account just before Diwali. All such schemes have always been game changers. Giving examples, he said that whether it is Shivraj Singh Chauhan’s Ladli Brahmin Yojana, Eknath Shinde’s Manjhi Ladki Behan Yojana, Mahtari Bandhan Yojana in Chhattisgarh or Maiya Samman Yojana of Jharkhand government last year. Such schemes have proven to be game changers.

Example given from Madhya Pradesh
He told that in 2018 we covered elections in Madhya Pradesh. At that time Rahul Gandhi was campaigning in the most aggressive manner. He was contesting elections at that time by giving the slogan of Chowkidar Chor Hai. At that time, Shivraj Singh Chouhan was the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh for 12 years and BJP was in government for 15 years. Even though people there criticized Shivraj Singh Chouhan, there was no anger that they wanted to oust him. Congress won there after 15 years, but even then Congress got only 114 seats out of 230 and even then BJP lost 109 seats. We are seeing exactly the same kind of environment in Bihar.

Senior journalist said that there is no such anger against Nitish Kumar that he has to be uprooted. This plan will be useful in removing the slight boredom that people have, seeing them for the last 20 years. If there was a lot of anger among the people against Nitish, there was a feeling of uprooting him, then these things would not have worked.

Vote Vibe founder Amitabh Tiwari said that in a conversation with a channel, about 9 percent of the votes being received by Prashant Kishore’s party, he said that he will cause the most damage to others, because about 20 percent of the vote banks in Bihar are from other parties.
