The Congress is likely to form the next government in Haryana, ending the 10-year run of the BJP and its alliance with National Conference may stay ahead in the race for Jammu and Kashmir, which could delivered a fractured mandate.
An aggregate of four exit polls indicate that the Congress will win 55 of Haryana’s 90 seats.
In Jammu and Kashmir, which also has 90 seats after delimitation, the Congress-National Conference alliance is likely to win 43 seats — three less than the majority mark of 46.
Exit polls, though, can often get it wrong.
