Bihar Election Results 2020 Live Updates: In a nail-biting contest that went down to the wire, the NDA edged past the Mahagathbandhan to win the Bihar elections, with the BJP emerging as the dominant partner for the first time in about two decades. Finally, with trends firming up by 11 pm, the NDA pulled ahead with wins and leads totalling 125 seats against the Grand Alliance’s 110 in the 243-member Assembly. For the NDA, Nitish Kumar 4.0 still looks probable despite the JD(U)’s slide to 43 seats.
The RJD, on the other hand, emerged as the single largest party, winning 75 seats, one more than the BJP which won 74. Although the Left parties won 16 out of the 28 seats that they contested, the Congress’ lackluster performance proved costly for the Opposition. The grand old party could only win 19 seats out of the 70 it contested.
Even as the counting was underway, the RJD alleged that returning officers had given in to pressure from the ruling alliance, and had not been fair in declaring the results. A delegation of RJD and Congress also approached the poll watchdog office to raise the issue of alleged voting irregularities. The Election Commission, however, refuted the charges and said that it has “never worked under anybody’s pressure” and that all officials and machinery are working sincerely for the declaration of results.
In his first remarks on the results even before the result was declared, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the people of Bihar have given their “decisive decision for development”.
