Understanding Exit Polls
An exit poll is an electoral survey conducted during the voting period by various organizations. These surveys estimate how many seats different parties will win and how many candidates from each party are expected to secure victory. They are often seen as a preliminary gauge of the election results before the official counting takes place.
Conclusion
The exit polls indicate a competitive landscape in Jammu and Kashmir, with the Congress and NC Aghadi potentially leading the charge against the BJP. The results will provide clarity on voter sentiment and the political direction of the region following significant changes over the past few years.
