The BJP, which had set a target of winning 75 seats ahead of the polls, is leading in 38 seats, while the Congress is ahead in 32 constituencies. The fledgling Jannayak Janta Party, which fought its maiden assembly polls, is also ahead in 10 seats.
As votes are being counted on Thursday (October 24), BJP and the Shiv Sena look all set to retain the western state of Maharashtra. The two parties have somehow crossed 150 mark in the 288-member Assembly.
