Two exit polls together suggest that the BJP may win 35 seats, few seats above the majority threshold of 31 in the 60-member assembly. Despite the Congress being a surprise friend in this election, the Left, which dominated the state for more than 30 years, is set to win only 12 seats.
With the primary demand of Greater Tipraland, Tipra Motha, the new party launched by former monarch Pradyot Kishore Debbarma, is projected to win 12 seats.
