Both the ruling JD(U)-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. This time the elections are different as the composition of the alliances have undergone a change and the battle has only got fierce on these 10 seats Banmankhi, Kasba, Sikta, Raxaul, Gaighat, Harlakhi, Parihar, Chiraia, Jale, and Benipatti
