The JD(U) headquarters in Patna is witnessing large-scale celebrations as the NDA continued its dominant show in the Bihar Assembly polls 2025, hovering around the 190-seat mark, in the 243-member Bihar assembly.

Though the BJP seems set to emerge as the single largest party in the state, JD(U)'s lead in 76 seats sparked celebrations all around, with party workers bursting firecrackers, smearing 'gulaal' on one another, playing drums and distributing sweets.

A giant poster of Nitish Kumar was lifted above the crowd, PTI reported. "Nitish ji ki paanchvi jeet likhi ja chuki hai'... bas formalities baaki hain! (Nitish ji's fifth victory is already written... only the formalities remain!" a jubilant worker told a regional news channel.

From a giant green thermocol arrow, the poll symbol of JD(U), buckets of steaming 'jalebis' to green 'gulaal', party workers are leaving no stones unturned to celebrate the impending win.
