Nitish-Modi duo creates wonder in Bihar polls, Tejashwi-Rahul fall flat

Patna, Nov 14 (UNI) Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Prime Minister Narendra together created wonder by steering NDA to stunning victory coming close to 203 while Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and RJD leader Tejashwi Prasad Yadav miserably failed to rise to the occasion with Grand Alliance has the chance to win only 34 seats, when results were declared on Friday for Bihar assembly elections.
All stakeholders and political analysts were waiting keenly for verdict of people of Bihar who have always shown the way of national politics and changed the course of history. Sampoorna Kranti (total revolution)launched from Bihar by veteran socialist leader Jaiprakash Narayan in 1974 had led to ouster of then authoritarian Congress regime in1977, which was then posing a serious threat to very existence of democracy.
Results of Bihar assembly elections surprised everyone, even NDA itself as "Chanakya" of BJP Amit Shah had given the target of winning 160 to 165 seat to NDA workers but coming close to win 203 seats, was a miracle. As per latest information given by Election Commission, NDA has won 149 seats and leading in 54 seats. If NDA won all seats where it is leading, it can win.
