Bihar Election Results: Top Constituencies With Least Winning Margin from 2015, Will It Make An Impact Today?

ABP News  

With the result of crucial Bihar assembly polls just a few hours away, the result of postal ballots are hinting at the winning streaks for Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tej Pratap Yadav. Also Read: MP, Gujarat, UP Bypolls 2020 Results LIVE Updates: Counting Of Votes On 58 Assembly Seats Across 11 States Underway Both the ruling JD-led NDA and the RJD-led Mahagathbandhan seem to be making the most in the top constituencies. It is to be seen how the votes will play out in the 10 out of these 78 seats, including one of the state minister's seats due to the narrow victory margin witnessed in the last Assembly election. In 2015, out of these 10 seats, BJP-led NDA won six seats and the grand alliance comprising RJD, JDU and Congress had won four seats including two Congress and one each by RJD and JD. It is to be recalled in 2015, Nitish Kumar's cabinet minister for tourism Krishna Kumar Rishi from Banmankhi was among the 10 winners who made it with the lowest victory margin by defeating Sanjiv Kumar Paswan of RJD with 708 votes only.
