Assembly Election Details and Result Timeline

The 2024 Assembly Elections in Maharashtra and Jharkhand are crucial for political stakeholders, as both states hold significant political weight.

• Maharashtra:
  The state, with its 288 constituencies, is witnessing a fierce contest primarily between the BJP-led coalition and the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance comprising Congress, the Nationalist Congress Party (Sharad Pawar faction), and Shiv Sena (UBT).
• Jharkhand:
  In Jharkhand, political parties are vying for dominance in the 81-seat Assembly. The contest is mainly between the ruling Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-Congress alliance and the opposition BJP.

The official results for both Maharashtra and Jharkhand will be announced on November 23, 2024.

What to Expect from the Exit Polls

Exit Polls are often seen as a precursor to the actual results, offering insights into voter behavior and potential outcomes. However, they are not always accurate and should be taken with caution.

In Maharashtra, the polls are expected to shed light on whether the BJP-led alliance can retain its stronghold or if the opposition MVA can reclaim lost ground. Meanwhile, in Jharkhand, the focus will be on whether the JMM-Congress coalition can overcome the BJP’s challenge and secure another term.
