New Delhi [India], November 26 (ANI): Congress leader Akhilesh Prasad Singh on Wednesday said that his party will review the poor performance in the recently concluded Bihar polls, adding that such a result was not expected.
In a major poll debacle, Congress, which contested around 61 seats, managed to win only six seats.
Speaking to ANI, Singh said, 'People are angry. No one expected or anticipated such an outcome. Now, when the review is taking place, everything will be discussed point by point. We will decide where the shortcomings were and what corrective measures need to be taken. The review is taking place, it is being conducted at a high level, at the party leadership level, and then everything will be decided there.'
The NDA's 'tsunami' swept away the opposition Mahagathbandhan in Bihar, with the BJP emerging as the single-largest party with 89 seats, and the Janata Dal (United) finishing a close second with 85. The other allies of the ruling coalition also registered high strike rates.
The ruling NDA got 202 seats, a three-fourths majority in the 243-member House. This is the second time the NDA has crossed the 200-mark in the assembly polls. In the 2010 polls, it had won 206 seats.
In the NDA, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won 89 seats, Janata Dal (United) won 85, Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) (LJPRV) won 19, Hindustani Awam Morcha (Secular) (HAMS) won five, and Rashtriya Lok Morcha won four seats.
In Mahagathbandhan, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) won 25 seats, Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) (Liberation) - CPI(ML)(L) - two, Indian Inclusive Party (IIP) - one and Communist Party of India (Marxist) - CPI(M) one seat.
All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) won five seats, and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) got one seat. (ANI)
