“Online election results are made available by the Election Commission of India. You can also check the party-wise trends and results,” according to the National Government Services Portal.
Postal ballots reserved for specific groups will be counted first. These ballots are reserved for people with disabilities, security personnel, and certain government employees involved in essential services. Votes cast using Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) will then be calculated.
Typically, early trends start emerging by 12:00 noon, although a clearer picture of the tally comes by late afternoon. Notably, the election results for each constituency will be declared as soon as the counting concludes.
The Jammu and Kashmir assembly elections to 90-member constituencies were held for the first time after the abrogation of special status under Article 370 in August 2019. The polls were held in three phases: September 18, September 25, and October 1. Meanwhile, voting in Haryana for 90 assembly seats took place in a single phase on October 5.
According to most exit poll predictions, the Congress is expected to secure a majority in Haryana. According to the Axis My India prediction, a hung assembly will be formed in Jammu and Kashmir. The pollster predicted the National Conference-Congress alliance to remain slightly ahead, whereas the BJP may trail close behind.
