Exit Polls Favor Congress in Haryana and NC-Congress Alliance in Jammu & Kashmir

Exit polls suggest significant gains for Congress in Haryana and a possible edge for the NC-Congress alliance in Jammu & Kashmir's first assembly elections since 2019.

Exit polls predict a comfortable majority for Congress in Haryana, potentially ending a decade-long BJP rule in the state.
The Congress-National Conference alliance is expected to perform well in Jammu & Kashmir, especially in the Kashmir Valley.
Voting in Haryana and Jammu & Kashmir recorded a turnout of 65.65% and 63.88% respectively, with peaceful polling except for minor clashes in Nuh, Haryana.
Gurugram district in Haryana saw a lower voter turnout compared to 2019, with urban disengagement cited as a key factor.
Votes from both regions will be counted on October 8, with results potentially influencing upcoming state elections in Maharashtra and Jharkhand.
