Exit polls released on Wednesday predict a strong showing for the BJP-led alliances in the Maharashtra and Jharkhand assembly elections, though results vary widely among different pollsters.

While Axis MyIndia forecasts a triumph for the Congress-JMM alliance in Jharkhand, others expect a landslide for BJP in both states. The intricate dynamics of these political contests become clearer as counting of votes commences on November 23.
