The counting of votes is currently underway in Haryana and Jammu and Kashmir constituencies. While the high-stake battles of star candidates are ongoing, the early trends from different news channels are showing Congress leading in Haryana and NC-Congress alliance is ahead in Jammu and Kashmir. Let’s take a look at different early trends from news channels.
Assembly Election 2024: India Today predictions
– Haryana: According to the CVoter exit poll, the Congress and its allies are set for a strong performance. The Congress is expected to secure a full majority with 50-58 seats in the 90-member Assembly, improving from 31 seats in the 2019 elections. The ruling BJP, seeking a third consecutive win, is projected to drop to 20-28 seats, a decline from its previous 40 seats. The Jannayak Janta Party (JJP), which won 10 seats in 2019, is expected to win only 0-2 seats in this election.
– Jammu and Kashmir: The Congress-National Conference alliance has the edge in what is expected to be a close contest. The exit poll, based on 20,013 interviews, suggests a competitive race in all 90 Assembly constituencies.
Assembly Election 2024: News 18 predictions
– Haryana: News 18 also predicts a strong showing for Congress, with the party expected to win close to 60 seats in the 90-seat Assembly. C-Voter data suggests Congress will secure 50-58 seats, while the BJP is likely to win 20-28 seats. JJP+ is projected to get 0-2 seats, and INLD+ and AAP are not expected to secure any seats. “Others” are projected to win 10-14 seats.
Assembly Election 2024: ABP News predictions
According to the website Diamondexch99.com, which is linked to the betting market, the latest predictions suggest that Congress candidates are likely to win 57 to 59 seats, while the BJP is expected to be limited to 22 to 24 seats. Bettors in the Phalodi betting market have started placing bets based on these predictions.
If these predictions from the Phalodi betting market prove accurate, it increases the likelihood of Congress returning to power in Haryana after 10 years. Notably, the BJP had won the state assembly elections in both 2014 and 2019.
Assembly Election 2024: Additional predictions
– The News 18 exit poll survey predicts Congress will win 49 seats, with BJP at 24 seats, one seat for JJP+, and 16 seats for Others.
– According to P-Marq, Congress is projected to secure 56 seats, while BJP is expected to win 31 seats. JJP+, INLD+, and AAP are predicted to win no seats, with Others securing 3 seats.
These differing numbers indicate a strong tilt in favour of Congress across exit polls, but with slight variations in seat projections across different surveys.
