In what spices up the Bihar counting, the NDA has now taken a lead in the state as per trends reported by Times Now.
As per the report, the NDA is leading on 117 seats, while the RJD lead Mahagathbandhan leads on 107. The BJP has emerged as the largest party in the alliance as it leads in 71 seats as opposed to JD(U)'s tally of 44.
The Mahagathbandhan which was tipped by virtually all Exit Polls to win the election, has another worry on the horizon as former minister and the son of Lalu Prasad Yadav, Tej Pratap is trailing from Hasanpur seat where JD(U)'s Raj Kumar Ray is leading.
The BJP though would be wary of the early numbers as in 2015 as well it had made a strong start in the state before its leads wilted away.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
