Patna: The Bharatiya Janata Party-led NDA is all set to script history in Bihar as it leads on 208 out of the 243 seats in the state assembly. The BJP is heading towards becoming the single largest party and is currently leading on 95 seats. The opposition alliance, the Mahagathbandhan, has been bundled out at 28 seats, of which Tejashwi Yadav’s RJD is the major contributor with 24 seats. In a major upset for the Congress, the Grand Old Party is leading in only 2 seats.
An interesting observation pointed out by netizens on X is making the rounds on social media.
