1995 Bihar Legislative Assembly election

The 1995 Bihar Legislative Assembly election was held in the Indian state of Bihar between February 21 and March 9, 1995. This election was conducted to elect the members of the 13th Bihar Legislative Assembly. Significant political rivalry marked this electoral contest, primarily between the Janata Dal, led by former Chief Minister Laloo Prasad Yadav, and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which campaigned vigorously against the ruling coalition. The election was characterized by issues such as caste dynamics, law and order, and economic development. The Janata Dal secured a decisive victory, affirming Yadav's leadership. This election further solidified the regional political landscape in Bihar, with implications for future electoral trends in the state.
