Tej Pratap Yadav Mahua Chunav 2025 Vote Counting LIVE Updates: The Mahua Assembly constituency in Bihar’s Vaishali district is gearing up for a major three-way contest in the 2025 Bihar Assembly elections. Former RJD leader Tej Pratap Yadav, the elder son of Lalu Prasad Yadav, has launched his own party and is contesting independently to test his political strength in his home region.
Tej Pratap will face stiff competition from sitting RJD MLA Mukesh Kumar Raushan and LJP (Ram Vilas) candidate Sanjay Kumar. Mahua has long been an RJD stronghold, making this one of the most closely watched contests of the election. The big question is whether the RJD can retain its dominance, the NDA can make inroads, or Tej Pratap can turn the tide in his favour.
