The people’s discontent was reflected emphatically in the outcome. The wafer-thin victory could provide only 12,768(0.03 per cent) votes margin for the BJP alliance. Their vote share decreased by 12 percent compared to the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. RJD leading the Maha Gathbandhan came out as the biggest party in the state assembly with 75 seats.
