Pushpam Priya Choudhary, the Plurals Party leader who once vowed to keep wearing a mask until she won in Bihar, has suffered a heavy defeat in the Darbhanga Assembly seat in the 2025 Bihar elections.<\/p>\n

Despite her high-profile campaign, Pushpam Priya secured only 1,403 votes, placing her far behind the winner, BJP\u2019s Sanjay Saraogi, who clinched the seat with 97,453 votes. She lost by a massive margin of 96,050 votes, one of the widest gaps recorded in the constituency this election.<\/p>\n

Darbhanga has remained a stronghold for Saraogi, who had also won the seat in 2020, and the latest results further cement his dominance. Pushpam Priya\u2019s performance marks another disappointing chapter for the Plurals Party, which continues to struggle for electoral relevance in Bihar.<\/p>\n

Pushpam Priya established \u2018The Plurals Party\u2019 in 2020, aiming to introduce a new kind of politics in Bihar that goes beyond religious and caste divisions.<\/p>\n

Notably, the Plurals Party is contesting all 243 seats in the state under the \u2018whistle\u2019 symbol. Always seen in black attire and a mask, she has vowed to remove her mask only after winning an election.<\/p>\n

Who Is Pushpam Priya Choudhary?<\/h4>\n

Pushpam Priya Choudhary\u00a0is the daughter of former JDU lawmaker Vinod Kumar Choudhary. Her grandfather, Professor Umakant Choudhary, was a close associate of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and one of the founding members of the Samata Party.<\/p>\n

Her uncle, Vinay Kumar Choudhary, is a JDU leader who won from Benipur in the 2020 Assembly elections.<\/p>\n

An emerging young leader with master\u2019s degrees from the University of Sussex and the London School of Economics, she began her career as a consultant in Bihar\u2019s tourism and health departments before entering politics.<\/p>\n

In 2020, Pushpam Priya\u2019s party contested 148 seats but did not secure any wins.<\/p>\n
