As the BJP-led NDA won the Maharashtra assembly elections and the JMM-led INDIA bloc emerged victorious in Jharkhand, we examine and explain both assembly polls in six big numbers.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Hindu nationalist party is headed for a victory in state elections in politically significant Maharashtra while the opposition won mineral-rich Jharkhand state

As the verdict for the Maharashtra and Jharkhand assembly elections is out, here is how some of the big faces fared in the contest.

Results are pending for Maharashtra and Jharkhand elections. Maharashtra saw a voter turnout of 66.05% with Mahayuti and MVA alliances competing fiercely. Jharkhand’s first phase involved 43 out of 81 seats,

The results are in and the Mahayuti alliance — comprising the BJP, the Ajit Pawar-led NCP and Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena — have secured a stunning victory in the state of Maharashtra. Meanwhile, the JMM-Congress alliance in Jharkhand has defied exit polls and triumphed.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ruling alliance is leading in polls in Maharashtra by a wide margin, signaling policy continuity in a state which houses most of India’s billionaires and is home to some of the country’s biggest investments.

Led by the BJP, the NDA achieved a remarkable victory in Maharashtra’s Assembly elections, while the INDIA bloc successfully retained its hold in Jharkhand. As political dynamics shift, what does this mean for the future of governance in these states?

Vote counting for Jharkhand & Maharashtra Assembly elections and by-elections in 48 assembly and 2 parliamentary seats is underway. BJP contests 257, INC 164. By-Polls are being held in 12 sates, wherein BJP is contesting on 40 seats,
