The Assam Assembly elections, held on April 9, 2026, witnessed a record voter turnout of 85.8%, marking the highest participation in the state's electoral history. The contest primarily involves a direct battle between the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress-led opposition alliance, Asom Sonmilito Morcha (ASM). Recent trends indicate that success in these elections may hinge on key regions across Upper, Lower, and Central Assam, where both parties have established strongholds. Additionally, regional parties such as the Asom Gana Parishad and the All India United Democratic Front are expected to play crucial roles in influencing outcomes in several constituencies. As voters await the final results, it is important to note that exit polls, which are based on surveys conducted post-voting, may not always reflect the actual election results.
