NEW DELHI: The National Democratic Alliance (NDA)'s impressive victory in Bihar is the outcome of sustained good governance by chief minister Nitish Kumar and the financial and logistical support by Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government at the Centre, Janata Dal (United) working president Sanjay Jha said in an interview to Smriti Kak Ramachandran. Edited excerpts

'For Bihar, this is a dream combination'

The response that we got across the state as the election picked pace made it clear that we are headed for a victory.

Of course we did not expect these numbers (the JD(U) got 85 and the NDA 202), but we knew that it'll be a massive mandate for us. Far from a dent in our votebank, we ended up expanding our footprint. There was no anti-incumbency against CM Nitish Kumar.
