After the Mahagatbandhan’s epic victory in the Bihar assembly polls, Indian newspapers went all out with their headlines. While the Indian Express declared “Verdict is in, No NDA in Bihar’s DNA”, Business Standard noted “BJP gets a taste of voter intolerance”.

While these absolute delights kept us going through the day, what amused us more were the plethora of political cartoons which astutely, and wittily played on the elections results.
