With the end of the voting for the third and the last phase of the Bihar Assembly election 2020, its time for the exit polls before the announcement of official results on November 10th. ABP-CVoter has released the figures of Exit Poll and it seems Chirag Paswan led Lok Janshakti Party as failed to impress as third front in the ongoing political battle. As per the ABP News-C Voter Exit Poll Survey, no party seems to be getting clear majority. While the mandate looks inclined towards Tejashwi, followed by Nitish Kumar, the so called third-front names such as LJP, Pappu Yadav and Owaisi made no impact. The mood of the people of the Bihar has predicted Rashtriya Janata Dal to once again emerge as single largest party with 81-89 seats. Tejashwi Yadav's Mahagahthbanadhan as of now seems to be throwing out the ruling Nitish Kumar government as the Janata Dal United is predicted to garner 38-46 seats. The survey projected 1 to 2 seats for the Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) Projections says NDA will get 2 per cent more votes in Bihar Assembly Elections, but margin stands very less. LJP and Others will have no effect in the polls.
