Seat change

Against Bihar's previous Lok Sabha election (2014), matched constituency-for-constituency

40SEATS
  • Retained24 (60%)
  • Changed hands16 (40%)

24 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 16 changed hands.

India’s constituencies have not been redrawn since the 2008 delimitation, so this compares the same seat boundary both times.
