The Nitish-Lalu combo made magic in Bihar assembly elections. Their Janata Parivar alliance has won 103 seats and is leading in 70 out of 243 constituencies. NDA lead by BJP won only 29 seats and is leading in 33 constituencies. Hence, Janata Parivar is going to form government in Bihar with absolute majority of 177 seats. Although, many media agencies have predicted victory for Janata Parivar, they predict maximum 140 seats for it, where as it is going to bag 177 seats.Nitish Kumar will form the government in Bihar for the 3rd time.
It is interesting to note Nitish Kumar, who will become Chief Minister of the state has won 40 seats and is leading in 29 seats thus 69 seats in total, whereas RJD lead by Lalu Prasad Yadav, which will become partner of his government has won 49 seats and is leading in 29 seats thus 78 seats in total. Hence, RJD is going to bag 9 seats more than Nitish Kumar’s party. However, Lalu Prasad Yadav declared that Nitish Kumar will become Chief Minister of the state. Lalu Prasad Yadav is said to be expecting Deputy Chief Minister Post.
