Speaking to ANI, Yadav questioned the reliability of exit polls, saying, "When was the exit poll correct? You are talking about the exit poll; I'm talking about the exact poll. You are saying that the vote has increased, but where has it increased? I believe that the people of Bihar have cast their votes for Mahagathbandhan."
Furthermore, Purnea MP expressed confidence in the Opposition alliance's performance, saying, "From my experience in Bihar, I feel that either there will be a hung, or the Mahagathbandhan will form the government."
