NEW DELHI: The Bharatiya Janata Party ( BJP ) secured a resounding victory in Haryana, clinching its highest-ever seat tally and paving the way for a third consecutive term in power. Meanwhile, in Jammu and Kashmir, the National Conference (NC) and Congress alliance emerged as the frontrunner to form the government. The BJP defied exit poll projections and analysts' expectations in the first elections held after the June Lok Sabha polls.
The Congress faced sobering lessons, while the NC achieved an unequivocal triumph, leading the alliance to power in Jammu and Kashmir. According to the Election Commission, the BJP won 48 out of the 90 seats in Haryana, setting the stage for a third straight term in office. In J&K, it secured 29 out of the 90 seats and the NC-Congress got impressive 48 seats.
BJP's success in Haryana has served as a timely boost ahead of the upcoming Maharashtra, Jharkhand elections. On the other hand, Congress' significant setback has dashed its hopes of capitalising on the gains made during the Lok Sabha elections.
