AI Reels In Bihar 2025: Parties Swap Rallies For Synthetic Campaigns

Bihar 2025 could mark India’s first real AI election. Political parties are flooding Instagram with AI-generated reels—crafted avatars, cartoon campaigners, and even deepfakes. A controversial AI video of PM Modi’s late mother sparked outrage, but it may just be the beginning. An India Today OSINT review found the BJP leading with 61 AI reels, followed closely by JDU at 58, while Congress and RJD lag behind. From vlogger-style avatars praising rivals to podcast characters mocking unemployment, AI is reshaping Bihar’s campaign landscape. But with synthetic clips blurring fact and fiction, the risks are enormous. Will voters be swayed by entertainment, persuasion, or misinformation? Bihar 2025 is the testing ground for India’s AI-driven politics.
