Overview

  • Election officials handed the list of newly elected MLAs to Governor Arif Mohammad Khan, triggering the formal government‑formation process.
  • Nitish Kumar is expected to resign and then be elected NDA legislature party leader before a swearing‑in likely on November 19 or 20 at Patna’s Gandhi Maidan, subject to the Prime Minister’s schedule.
  • According to party negotiators, the tentative share‑out under the 1:6 formula points to about 15–16 berths for the BJP, roughly 14 for JD(U), three for LJP(RV), and one each for HAM and RLM, with the Speaker’s post reported to be earmarked for JD(U).
  • The BJP moved to enforce discipline after the landslide, suspending former Union minister R.K. Singh, MLC Ashok Kumar Agarwal and Katihar Mayor Usha Agarwal for alleged anti‑party activities.
  • Voter turnout reached 67.13% with women voting at higher rates than men, a trend widely cited in post‑poll analysis, while Jan Suraaj’s claims of large fund transfers to influence voters remain unverified and contested.
