In a shocking turn of events, the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has emerged victorious in the Bihar assembly elections, securing 202 of the 243 seats. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has become the single-largest party with 89 seats, closely followed by its ally, the Janata Dal (United) with 85 seats. However, the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), led by Tejashwi, has taken the top spot in terms of vote share with a significant 23% of the total votes cast, according to data from the Election Commission of India (ECI). The RJD's impressive performance has left the BJP in the second position with a vote share of 20.8%, while the JD(U) follows closely with 19.25%. The Indian National Congress has secured a vote share of 8.71%, while the Lok Janshakti Party and CPI (ML) have managed 4.97% and 2.84% respectively. The opposition has reacted strongly to the results, with Congress leader Rahul Gandhi calling it 'unfair from the beginning.' Mallikarjun Kharge has promised a thorough study of the election results, while Pawan Khera termed it a 'robbery in daylight.' Congress spokesperson Jairam Ramesh has alleged 'large-scale vote theft orchestrated by the Prime Minister, the Home Minister, and the Election Commission.' The election results have been met with mixed reactions, with many questioning the outcome. The BJP's emergence as the single-largest party has been overshadowed by the RJD's impressive vote share, leaving many wondering what the future holds for the state of Bihar.
