Voting for the second and final phase of the Bihar assembly elections took place on Tuesday. Around 3.7 crore people exercised their right to franchise in this phase to decide the fate of the state for the next 5 years.
According to pollsters, the NDA, comprising the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Janata Dal (United), is likely to make a comeback.
The Mahagathbandhan may also give a strong fight to the ruling NDA despite having a friendly fight on 5-10 seats in the election. The Jan Suraaj Party, however, is likely to make inroads in the recently conducted polls.
