In its article, the Shiv Sena mouthpiece claimed that Tejashwi Yadav will defeat the NDA alliance in Bihar just like Joe Biden’s “landslide victory” against Republican candidate and serving President Donald Trump. 

"Balloons of lies were released in the air, but they disappeared in the air itself," the editorial said without naming the JD(U)-BJP combine. 

The editorial also pointed out that RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav's rallies received good response, unlike those of his political opponents.

Meanwhile, most exit polls predict a rout for the ruling JD(U)-BJP alliance and a resounding victory for the Grand Alliance (Mahagathbandhan) led by RJD's chief ministerial candidate Tejashwi Yadav. 

The counting will be taken up at 55 centres across 38 districts where the outcome will decide the fate of the Nitish Kumar government that has helmed the state for a decade and a half.
