Jharkhand Exit Polls 2024: NDA Holds Edge In Close Fight With JMM+, Predicts Poll Of Polls

The exit polls for Jharkhand Assembly Elections 2024 suggest a neck-and-neck contest, with the NDA slightly ahead of the JMM+ alliance. The Bharatiya Janata Party-led NDA appears to have made gains in key regions, but the ruling Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-Congress-RJD alliance remains a formidable contender. The predictions indicate a tough battle, with both sides vying for a majority in the 81-member assembly. While the NDA is banking on its development narrative and anti-incumbency sentiment, the JMM+ alliance relies on its strong tribal voter base and welfare schemes #jharkhandexitpollresults #exitpollresults #jharkhandexitpoll2024 #jharkhandelection2024 #jharkhandexitpoll #jharkhandelectionexitpoll #exitpoll #jharkhandelectionresult #exitpoll2024 #exitpoll2024live #electionsresults #bjp #congress #exitpollwithoneindia #jmm ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.103~GR.344~

Eknath Shinde Resigns as Maharashtra CM, Speculation Over Mahayuti Alliance's Next Leadership Choice

Eknath Shinde has stepped down as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra following the Mahayuti alliance’s resounding victory in the assembly elections. Shinde submitted his resignation to Governor C P Radhakrishnan, who requested him to serve as a caretaker CM until a successor is appointed. The spotlight now shifts to the selection of the next chief minister, with BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis and Shinde both emerging as contenders. The BJP, which secured 132 seats to become the single-largest party, has bolstered its claim to the top post. However, the Shiv Sena, led by Shinde, is demanding continuity in leadership, citing coalition precedents and support from the party’s MLAs and the Maratha community. #EknathShinde #MaharashtraPolitics #MahayutiAlliance #DevendraFadnavis #ShivSena #MaharashtraElections #CMResignation #PoliticalTransition #MarathaCommunity #BJPLeadership #AjitPawar #AlliancePolitics #NextCM #MaharashtraNews #PowerShift ~HT.318~PR.152~ED.101~GR.121~
