PATNA: The Bihar Assembly election has handed a decisive victory to the National Democratic Alliance, and a significant share of that edge has come from a party once considered a gamble within the coalition.
While the BJP and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal (United) have led the NDA% sweep, the Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) has emerged as the alliance’s additional force with a confirmed tally of 19 seats.
With the final count complete, the LJP (RV) finished with a strike rate of 68 per cent. ‘The party’s 19-seat haul marks an extraordinary leap from its lone seat in 2020, amounting to an increase of about 1800 per cent in its representation. The outcome has strengthened the NDAs overall performance and pushed the alliance comfortably beyond the 200-seat mark in the 243-member Assembly.
