As per the latest updates, Murari Pasavan of BJP is leading in the Pirpainti assembly constituency, a Scheduled Caste (SC) reserved seat in Bhagalpur district, Bihar. The Pirpainti assembly had witnessed electoral contests dominated primarily by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD). Murari Pasavan has a lead of over 12,000 votes currently.

Pirpainti falls under the Bhagalpur Lok Sabha constituency, which has been held by Ajay Kumar Mandal of JD(U) since 2024, showing a strong presence of non-Congress parties in the region.

For the 2025 assembly elections, the main candidates contesting are:

Murari Pasavan (BJP), seeking to retain BJP’s dominance,
Ram Vilash Paswan (RJD), aiming to reclaim the seat,
Ghanshyam Das (Jan Suraaj Party – JSP), representing an emerging regional alternative,
Several independent candidates also contest, adding complexity to the race.

The constituency regularly reflects broader caste-based and regional political trends, with the BJP and RJD being the primary contenders historically.

Pirpainti assembly constituency remains a politically significant SC-reserved seat characterised by intense BJP-RJD rivalry, shaped by local caste factors and evolving political affiliations, with the 2025 election featuring strong contestation among BJP, RJD, JSP, and independents.

As per the latest trends from Bihar, Nitish Kumar-led National Democratic Alliance or NDA is headed for a landslide victory.
