As the 2nd and final phase of the 2024 Jharkhand Assembly elections concludes today, the focus will be on exit polls that give the first glimpse into the two-horse race going on between the ruling Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-led INDIA alliance and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led NDA aimed at ending the Hemant Soren government’s innings.
Polling in the second phase commenced on Wednesday, with elections in 38 of the state’s 81 seats. With this round of voting over, attention now turns to the polls predicting and analyzing which party is the most likely to emerge victorious.
However, as exit polls often vary in accuracy, the final outcome will depend on the actual vote count once all the ballots are tallied.
The JMM-led alliance seemed to gain the victory in the 2019 Jharkhand Assembly election, with Hemant Soren assuming the position of Chief Minister. In this phase, the alliance won 13 seats out of 38 and its allies Congress and CPI(ML)L secured 8 and 1 seat, respectively. The BJP, on the other hand, won 12 seats, and its current ally, the All Jharkhand Students’ Union Party (AJSUP), claimed 2. Meanwhile, the Jharkhand Vikas Morcha (JVM), led by Babulal Marandi, secured 2 seats before merging with the BJP in 2020.
