Post-election surveys have offered varied projections on who may form governments in West Bengal, Kerala, Assam and Puducherry, following recently held Assembly elections.
In West Bengal, voting for 294 seats was held in two phases—152 constituencies on April 23 and 142 on April 29—with 148 needed for a majority. While several agencies differ widely, the combined “poll of polls” estimate places BJP at 147 seats and Trinamool Congress at 141, indicating a tight contest.
Kerala, which voted in a single phase on April 9 for its 140-member Assembly (majority mark 71), is projected by most surveys to tilt towards the Congress-led alliance. Estimates broadly place the Congress front in the 70–90 range, with the Left-led alliance trailing and BJP expected to win a small number of seats.
Assam also voted on April 9 for 126 seats, where 64 are required to form a government. Most post-poll projections give BJP a clear lead—often in the high-80s to around 100 seats—while Congress is shown well behind, with some surveys also allocating a limited share to AIUDF.
In Puducherry, where polling for 30 seats took place on April 9 (majority 16), surveys indicate an advantage for the NRC–BJP alliance, with projections generally placing it around the majority mark and Congress in the low double digits.
