Exit polls on Tuesday evening predicted a hung Assembly in Maharashtra with the Congress-led alliance coming on top. Both Star TV and IBN-Lokmat exit polls suggested a split verdict in the 288-seat Maharashtra Assembly with the Congress- NCP combine bagging the most number of seats.
Star said the Congress and NCP would end up with 140 seats - five short of the half-way mark - while IBN-Lokmat said the coalition would get 135-145 seats.
Political pundits said they expected the Shiv Sena-BJP alliance to get 105-115 seats, mainly because their support base had been undercut by Raj Thackeray’s MNS, which is predicted to win 12 seats, while others and Independents 25-35 seats.
Star News exit poll projected a Congress win in Haryana with the party winning 57 seats in the 90-member Assembly. INLD is shown winning 18 seats, Haryana Janhit Congress (nine), BSP (three), BJP (one) and others (three).
