Bihar Assembly Election Result: The Nitish Kumar-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) on November 14 secured a massive victory in the Bihar Assembly election, winning 202 seats, while the Mahagathbandhan suffered a crushing defeat, managing just 35 seats.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) emerged as the single largest party by winning 89 seats, while its ally, Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal United (JDU), was right behind with 85 seats. Meanwhile, the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), which fell to the third position, suffered a massive setback by winning 26 seats.

While the NDA alliance registered landslide wins with wide margins, the election also featured some nail-biting battles. The narrowest contest was a 27-vote margin in Sandesh, and in three constituencies, the margin between the winning and trailing candidate was less than 100 votes.
