Bihar is holding the last day of its elections on November 11 for 122 areas.
Many important politicians, like ministers and former deputy chief ministers, are trying to win their seats.
Over 3.7 crore people can vote at more than 45,000 voting places, with most of them in villages.
The areas voting include those near Nepal, which are important because of the large Muslim population.
The election is a big competition between two main groups, the NDA and the INDIA Alliance.

The people of Bihar will vote for their leaders, and the final results will be announced on November 14 after all the votes are counted.
