On October 15, 2025, Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal (United) (JD(U)) released its first list of 57 candidates for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections. This announcement follows extensive discussions within the party leadership regarding seat distribution as part of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA).
The JD(U)'s move comes amid ongoing seat-sharing negotiations within the NDA, with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) having already announced its list of 71 candidates. While the NDA has finalized its seat-sharing formula, talks continue regarding which party will contest specific constituencies.
The Bihar Assembly elections are scheduled to be held in two phases on November 6 and November 11, 2025, with the counting of votes set for November 14.
As the election date approaches, political parties are intensifying their campaigns and finalizing their candidate lists. The JD(U)'s announcement marks a significant step in its preparation for the elections. Further details on the selected candidates and their constituencies are expected to be released in the coming days.
