Bihar- Total seats ( 40)
Parties | 2019 Exit Polls | 2014 Tally |
BJP & Alliance | 30 (BJP & JDU) | 22 (BJP) |
LJP | 6 | |
RSLP | 3 | |
Congress | 2 | |
RJD | 4 | |
JDU | 2 |
In 2014, the BJP-LJP-RLSP combine won 31 Lok Sabha seats out of 40, RJD-Congress-NCP won seven and NDA's erstwhile ally JDU managed to bag only two. The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) won only four seats and the Congress two. The JD-U, which contested separately, won two seats.
The contest in Bihar is in contrast to the 2014 LS polls which saw Nitish as a vocal critic of Narendra Modi. Nitish made it clear that his political role was limited to being a chief minister.
