The Bihar election results have dealt a massive blow to the Mahagathbandhan—a shock that even seasoned observers of Bihar politics could not have imagined.

Fifteen years later, the party seems to be facing a similar crossroads. So, the question is: how and why did the Mahagathbandhan suffer such a huge loss? In this article, we explore the five biggest reasons behind the alliance’s defeat.
