RS polls: 7 BJP nominees file papers; party may surprise with 8th candidate

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 14 February 2024
Seven BJP candidates filed their nomination papers for Rajya Sabha elections. An eighth contender may be fielded, requiring polling on Feb 27. BJP-led NDA has enough strength to send seven nominees. Cross voting may intensify the face-off between BJP and SP. BJP's strength is growing under PM Modi's leadership, and UP has a 'double-engine' government under CM Yogi Adityanath.

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~
