The high-stakes Assembly elections, marked by a fierce two-cornered battle between the ruling Mahayuti and the Opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), have concluded. Now, Maharashtra eagerly awaits the results to see who will take charge of the state's leadership. The majority mark in the 288-member Maharashtra Assembly is 145.

Most exit polls have predicted a victory for the Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra, but two pollsters expect hung assembly. The BJP-led NDA is expected to win the Jharkhand assembly elections, most exit polls say.
