Assembly Election 2019 Results HIGHLIGHTS: Not A Massive Mandate But NDA Set To Retain Maharashtra; Haryana Still A Cliffhanger

Assembly Election 2019 Results LIVE UPDATES: The Haryana Assembly poll verdict on Thursday threw up a hung House, with no party reaching the majority figures, in contrast to Maharashtra where the BJP-Shiv Sena combine was comfortably placed to retain power.In Haryana, the ruling BJP emerged as the single largest party by winning 40 seats, but fell short of the halfway mark by 5 seats. The Congress, on the other hand, showed significant progress from its performance in the last Assembly elections by winning 31 seats. It had got 15 in the 2014 Assembly polls.The BJP got 36.49 per cent votes, while the Congress bagged 28.08 per cent votes. INLD, which ruled the state for four times, managed just 1 seat. The nearly year-old Jannayak Janata Dal (JJP) was victorious in 10 constituencies, making it a possible kingmaker, along with 7 Independents.Here are top highlights from Haryana and Maharashtra Assembly Elections 2019 as it rolled out throughout the day.

Background

Assembly Election 2019 Results: The results of much-awaited Maharashtra and Haryana Assembly Polls, held on October 21, will be declared on October 24 (Thursday). Counting of votes will start from 8 am and the final results are expected to b e announced by evening after all votes are counted by the Election Commission officials. The recently conducted Assembly Elections witnessed a slump in voter turnout compared to 2014 elections with estimated turnout in Maharashtra stood at 58 per cent and in Haryana 64 per cent. Barring few 'sporadic incidences', Deputy Election Commissioner Umesh Sinha said that both the Assembly elections and all the by-elections have been "peaceful and smooth".In Haryana, the main contest is between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Congress on several seats but the new Jannayak Janta Party (JJP), which broke away from the Indian National Lok Dal (INLD), is also said to the king maker in the elections. In Maharashtra, the main parties in the fray are the BJP, Shiv Sena, the Congress and the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP). Assembly Elections in the state is said to be a close battle of two alliances: BJP-Shiv Sena on one hand, and the Congress-NCP on the other.Maharashtra, Haryana Election Results 2019 - When And Where To WatchAs the counting of votes will begin at 8 am on October 24, ABP News will start its exclusive coverage from 6 am to bring you the fastest update on counting of votes. The Election Commission is expected to declare the results in the evening by 5 pm. The leads predicting which political parties would win the Assembly Elections in both Maharashtra and Haryana will come by afternoon.You can tune in to ABP News Channel or ABP Live to get all LIVE UDPATES on Maharashtra and Haryana Assembly Elections from 6 am onward. Viewers can also watch election results coverage at our LIVE TV and get fastest updates on our social media platforms - Facebook and Twitter.With less than 24 hours for the EVM strongrooms to open and vote counting to begin, here is a list of the key candidates to watch out for in the Haryana and Maharashtra Assembly elections.1. Devendra Fadnavis (Nagpur South West) (Getty Image)He is the Chief Ministerial candidate, a posterboy of RSS and close to Prime Minister Narendra Modi - all the traits you need to taste success in BJP. Fadnavis, who is contesting from Nagpur South West is tipped to win handsome like in 2014. Recently, in a rally in Maharashtra, he stressed on the nature of one-sided fight saying, "The wrestler is ready, but no one to fight".2. Aditya Thackeray (Worli) (Getty Image)The first Thackeray to fight an election, Balasaheb's grandson is definitely a person to watch out for. The Sena wants to make him the Deputy CM face in Fadnavis government, which depends on the share of seats the two alliance partners can garner. Interestingly, moving from Sena's age old "Marathi First" outlook, Thackeray Junior reached out to different sections - Gujarati, Urdu-speaking communities in his constituency in Worli.3. Ajit Pawar (Baramati) (Getty Image)Once known to be in the shadow of Sharad Pawar, Ajit Pawar is fighting from Pawar stronghold Baramati. BJP's Gopichand Padalkar is fighting from the same constituency but defeating a Pawar in Baramati is as tough as defeating a Gandhi in Rae Bareli. He has been the focus of media for ED row but remained defiant all throughout the campaign.4. Prithviraj Chavan (Karad South) (Getty Image)The former Chief Minister of Maharashtra who is fighting from Karad South is definitely a key person to look out for. The Congress leader is however tipped to lose, according to News18-IPSOS exit poll. Prithviraj Chavan was challenged by BJP's Atulbaba Suresh Bhosale.5. Ashok Chavan (Bhokar) (Getty Image)Another former Chief Minister of the state and Congress leader is fighting from Bhokar constituency. During his rule, he has been mired in scandals. Now years later, even in 2019 Assembly election, his prospects aren't too glossy with News18-IPSOS exit poll predicting a loss for him.6. Manohar Lal Khattar (Karnal) (Getty Image)The CM face of BJP in Haryana, Khattar has evolved from a new kid on the block whose meetings were ill attended to the sole voice in Haryana BJP who commands respect, in the last 5 years. His day of poll was also unique when he travelled by train from Chandigarh to Karnal city, took an e-rickshaw to reach his home and then rode bicycle to reach the polling booth. He is tipped to be back with a huge margin.7. Randeep Surjewala (Kaithal) (Getty Image)A close confidante of former Congress President Rahul Gandhi and party's national spokesperson, Randeep Surjewala sought a fifth term as lawmaker, and is contesting from the Kaithal Assembly constituency but the News18-IPSOS exit poll claims that the senior Congress leader is up for a close fight from his Assembly seat. Surjewala is up against Leela Ram Gujjar who had been a former INLD member and has recently joined BJP.8. Yogeshwar Dutt (Baroda) (Getty Image)The famous wrestler and Olympic medallist is another face to look out for. He is unlikely to turn the BJP's fortunes in the tough seat of Baroda, where he is contesting against Congress candidate Sri Krishan Hooda who successfully contested in the 2009 and 2014 elections by defeating Kapoor Singh Narwal of INLD each time. An exit poll conducted by News18-IPSOS has projected that Dutt might lose.9. Babita Phogat (Dadri) (Getty Image)Another wrestler from Haryana, Babita holds two Commonwealth medals and has contested from Dadri seat in Haryana on BJP's ticket. She joined the saffron fold amid much fanfare. However like Dutt, the exit poll has projected her to be on the losing side. She is facing Nripendera Sangwan of the Congress and Somveer Sangwan, a former BJP candidate who contested as an independent.

Addressing a press conference at the party headquarters, senior Congress leader Anand Sharma said that the party accepts the people's mandate with 'honour and humility'.




Sharma accused the BJP of running a misleading campaign during the elections and said that they 'misused governance, administration was in their possession, they had all means available to influence people'.
