Notably, DMK is part of the opposition INDIA bloc.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>What Stalin said?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">In a detailed post on X, Stalin congratulated JD(U) chief Nitish Kumar for the NDA\u2019s decisive win, saying the veteran leader had earned the trust of the people of Bihar. He also appreciated RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav for leading a spirited and energetic campaign despite the opposition alliance\u2019s poor overall performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">However, Stalin\u2019s message soon shifted to a sharp rebuke of the Election Commission. Branding the ECI as partial in his remarks, he stated that the election results do not \u201cwhitewash the misdeeds and reckless actions&#8221; of the Commission.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">\u201cThe reputation of the ECI is at its lowest point,&#8221; he wrote, adding that the electorate deserved a stronger and more impartial institution whose conduct should inspire confidence even among losing candidates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">He emphasised that election outcomes are shaped by welfare delivery, ideological clarity, and consistent campaign management, all lessons that the INDIA bloc must absorb as it prepares for future political battles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Bihar verdict<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The Bihar Assembly Election 2025 produced a resounding mandate for the NDA, which secured 202 of the 243 seats. The Bharatiya Janata Party emerged as the single-largest party with 89 seats, while its ally, the Janata Dal (United), led by Nitish Kumar, won 85 seats. The Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) added further weight to the alliance with 19 seats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">In sharp contrast, the opposition Mahagathbandhan struggled to make an impact. The Rashtriya Janata Dal secured only 25 seats, a steep fall from its earlier performance, while the Congress managed just six. AIMIM picked up five seats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Tejashwi Yadav did retain his Raghopur constituency, but the broader electoral mood clearly favoured the NDA, paving the way for Nitish Kumar to return as Chief Minister for yet another record-breaking term.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The results came as a blow to the opposition alliance, underscoring the challenges ahead. Stalin\u2019s remarks reflect a wider churn within the INDIA bloc as leaders reassess strategy, messaging and organisational strength following the NDA\u2019s emphatic victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Shuddhanta Patra\" title=\"Shuddhanta Patra\" src=\"data:image\/jpeg;base64,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\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/shuddhanta-patra-28391.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Shuddhanta Patra<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Shuddhanta Patra, a seasoned journalist with eight years of experience, serves as Senior Sub\u2011Editor at CNN News 18.
