The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is going to win the 2020 Bihar elections by a considerable margin, according to an opinion poll conducted by the ABP-CVoter less than a week before the 2020 Assembly elections in the state.

Grand alliance of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), Congress and several others may not be able to compete with the incumbent party, as the ABP-CVoter projected a 135-159 seat-win for the NDA. Within the 243-member assembly, the alliance of the opposition parties may obtain 77-98 seats, as per the poll.

The Bharatiya Janata Party will secure a major chunk of the seats, at 73 to 81, according to the poll data. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, leading the JD(U), may get 59 to 67 seats and Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) can get three to seven seats, as per the opinion poll.
