NEW DELHI FEB 29: With the Election Commission formally notifying the constitution of the new Bihar Assembly, the onus of government formation in the state has now shifted to state Governor V C Pandey.

Even as suspense reigns over what course the Governor will take, the EC today issued the notification constituting the 324-member Bihar Assembly.

The notification signed by all the three members of the Commission, headed by Chief Election Commissioner M S Gill, was issued a day earlier than scheduled in view of the wafer-thin margin between the rival Rashtriya Janata Dal and the National Democratic Aliance camps.

The Commission which had announced the notification of the Haryana Assembly yesterday, also approved the list of newly-elected members of the 147-member Orissa Assembly.
