As the counting date of May 4 approaches, exit polls from various agencies indicate significant trends in the 2026 Assembly elections across four Indian states. In Assam, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is projected to secure a commanding majority, with estimates ranging from 90 to 102 seats out of 126. In West Bengal, while the BJP appears to have the edge with projections of 192 seats, some polls suggest a close contest with the All India Trinamool Congress (TMC). Tamil Nadu shows a strong consensus for the DMK-led alliance, anticipated to win 125 ± 11 seats in the 234-member Assembly. Conversely, Kerala's race is tight, with the United Democratic Front (UDF) projected to lead with 69 ± 9 seats, just short of the majority mark. As always, these exit polls serve as indicators rather than certainties, with the actual results set to be revealed on May 4.
