The National Democratic Alliance has retained Bihar with a wafer-thin majority of 125 seats in the 243-member assembly, paving the way for a fourth term for Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.
Though the Rashtriya Janata Dal-led opposition alliance put up a tough fight, they could not go past the halfway mark.
However, the Tejashwi Yadav-led party emerged as the single-largest party with 75 seats, while the Bharatiya Janata Party won 74.
Both Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal-United and Congress performed poorly, winning 43 and 19 seats respectively.
Chirag Paswan's Lok Janshakti Party could win only one seat.
Here's the final party-wise result.
