The second phase of Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 is underway across 122 constituencies, featuring nine ministers from Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's cabinet. With 47.6% voter turnout by early afternoon, this phase represents a crucial test for minor NDA partners in the Seemanchal region, which has significant Muslim populations. Security has been enhanced with over 400,000 personnel deployed, as the state anticipates results on November 14 following last week's record 65% turnout in phase one.
