India, Nov. 14 -- The Bihar unit of the BJP posted a photo of PM Narendra Modi and CM Nitish Kumar of the JD(U) together after the NDA secured a massive mandate to continue in power in the state.

It came with a Bhojpuri caption that could be roughly translated to: "Modi-Nitish partnership a hit, Bihar development on repeat."

Nitish Kumar's JD(U) and Modi's BJP were ahead on 82 and 95 seats, as of 3 pm, with the NDA as a whole leading in over 200 of the 243 assembly segments.
