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~
