Sanjay Jha said – Opposition’s hopes were dashed

JDU MP Sanjay Kumar Jha said, “Seeing the crushing defeat in this election, the frustrated opposition has started making various excuses and trying to create narratives. During the voting, the people of the opposition were making fabricated allegations throughout the day that the Election Commission was conducting slow voting. But in the evening, when the data came out that there was not slow voting in Bihar, but historic voting, then the opposition’s hopes were dashed.”
