The Bihar Assembly election results will decide the fate of 243 seats. Exit polls released earlier this week have predicted a clear win for the Nitish Kumar-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA). Many surveys suggest that the alliance could even secure a two-thirds majority in the state assembly.
Meanwhile, preparations for vote counting have been completed. Security has been tightened at all strong rooms and counting centers across Bihar. According to the Election Department, all Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) will be brought to counting centers on time, and the process will begin as per the Election Commission’s schedule.
