India Today-Cicero Exit Poll: Modi-led BJP projected to form next govt in Jharkhand
A resurgent BJP is predicted to bag the most number of seats in the Jharkhand Assembly and could form the next government in the eastern state where a JMM-Congress alliance was in power, says an India Today Group-Cicero Exit and Post Poll survey.

43-51 (47) seats |
CONG+ |
7-11 (9) seats |
JMM |
14-18 (16) seats |

The Narendra Modi-led BJP and its allies are likely to win 43-51 (47) seats of the 81-member state Assembly. The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), led by Hemant Soren, is projected to bag 14-18 (16) seats. The Congress and its allies could get just 7-11 (9) seats, says the survey. Other parties, including independents, are projected to win 7-11 (9) seats.
