Bihar Election 2025: Bihar is preparing to embark on its multi-phase assembly elections that will fill 243 seats. The first phase of polling is scheduled on Thursday, November 6, covering 121 constituencies across 18 districts. The second phase will take place on November 11, with the counting of votes set for November 14.

The most crucial step before reaching the polling booth is to ensure that your name is correctly on the electoral roll.
Even without an EPIC, or a Voter ID Card, you can vote if your name is included in the official list of voters. The ECI allows a variety of photo identification documents for verification.
Valid Photo IDs include: Passport, Driving License, government or public sector photo ID card, PAN Card, Aadhaar Card, Post Office Passbook, MNREGA Job Card, Health Insurance Card, Photo Pension Card, National Population Register (NPR) Smart Card, or an ID card issued by an MP, MLA, or MLC.
You then head to the Electronic Voting Machine once your identity is verified at the polling station.
EVM Operation: The Ballot Unit of the EVM is an electronic display of the names of the candidates along with the election symbols and a blue button against each.
Casting Vote: This is done by pressing the blue button next to the name and symbol of your candidate.
Confirmation: The moment the button is pressed, a small red light illuminates next to the candidate's name, together with a distinct long beep sound; that is a signal of the registering of your vote.
Important Note On EVM Button: The Election Commission clearly explains that there is no need to keep the button pressed for a long time. One brief press would record your selection. EVM accepts only four votes in one minute.
