National Conference has been predicted to emerge as the single largest party in Jammu and Kashmir with 33-35 seats, according to People's Pulse.

J&K, Haryana exit polls 2024 results highlights: Multiple exit polls indicated a strong lead for the Congress-National Conference (NC) tie-up in Jammu and Kashmir. However, the alliance is likely to face competition from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to secure a majority. India Today-CVoter has forecast around 40-48 seats for the Congress-NC alliance in Jammu and Kashmir, making them the front runners to form government in the union territory. According to the latest exit polls by Dainik Bhaskar, Congress is predicted to win 59 seats in the Haryana Assembly elections, while the BJP is expected to pick just 21 seats. People's Pulse has forecast a tally of 55 seats for Congress in Haryana's 90-seater assembly.

After casting his ballot, Union Minister and former Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar hit out at the Congress, accusing it of misleading the public and claimed that employment opportunities have improved under BJP regime in the state.

Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, urged citizens to participate in large numbers and vote in favour of the Congress in the elections. In a post on X, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi asked voters in Haryana to focus on important issues such as agriculture, employment, and women's rights. Also, incumbent Chief Minister Nayab Saini called on voters to ensure full participation in the assembly polls.

The 2019 Haryana Assembly polls saw a hung assembly, with the BJP winning 40 seats, Congress 31, and Dushyant Chautala's JJP 10 seats. The JJP played the role of the kingmaker in forming the coalition government. In March 2024, this coalition fell apart, leading to Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar's resignation. Nayab Singh Saini was appointed as the new chief minister, but his minority government faced challenges when three independent MLAs withdrew their support in May 2024. The results of the state elections will be declared on October 8.
