Congress-National Conference Get Most J&K Seats, But Short Of Majority: Exit Polls

The alliance of the Congress and the National Conference (NC) is predicted to win the most seats in Jammu and Kashmir, according to a poll of polls.

Health warning: exit polls often get it wrong.

An exit poll by Dainik Bhaskar forecasts the BJP would get 20-25 seats, the Congress and NC combine would win 35-40 seats, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) 4-7 seats, and other parties 12-16 seats.

Peoples Pulse’s exit poll predicted 23-27 seats for BJP, 46-50 for Congress-NC alliance, 7-11 for PDP, and 4-6 for other parties.

There are 90 seats in the Jammu and Kashmir assembly, so the halfway mark is 46.

Statehood has been a major issue in the Jammu and Kashmir election; the BJP has assured statehood would be restored. The Congress and the NC also made the same promise.

A development in the Jammu and Kashmir election was the entry of the banned Jamaat-e-Islami, which backed some candidates, and its strategic alliance with Engineer Rashid’s Awami Ittehad Party.
