The “MY” (Muslim-Yadav) support base of the party appears to have been kept in mind in the selection of candidates, though other backward castes and upper castes have also been given tickets.

The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) announced its list of 143 candidates for the upcoming Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, marking the formal launch of its campaign under the leadership of Tejashwi Yadav.
Tejashwi Yadav will once again contest from his traditional Raghopur seat in Vaishali district, while the party has strategically allocated 19 tickets to Muslim candidates, signaling its continued focus on social and minority representation.
At a press conference held at the party’s state headquarters, RJD leaders said the selection of candidates was done keeping in mind the state’s caste and community balance. The party has also reserved 100 seats for its alliance partners, adhering to coalition principles within the Mahagathbandhan.
With this list, RJD aims to consolidate its MY (Muslim–Yadav) vote base while also reaching out to other backward and marginalized communities ahead of the high-stakes polls.
