Political parties are on the edge as counting day approaches, especially after the exit polls indicated winds of change in Haryana and a tough battle in J&K.
These J&K elections are particularly significant as they are the first since the revocation of Article 370 in August 2019, which led to the bifurcation of the former state into the Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh.
The official counting time begins at 8 am. The process begins with the counting of postal ballots that only select groups can use, including people with disabilities.
The exit polls have predicted a comfortable majority for Congress in Haryana and a hung assembly in J&K, with NC-Congress alliance emerging as the single largest player.
No party managed to secure the majority in the 90-member assembly in 2014. The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) emerged as the single largest party, winning 28 seats followed by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) which secured 25 seats.
In a rare incident, Israel removed a map of India from its official website after it inaccurately depicted a part of Jammu and Kashmir as belonging to Pakistan. Israel’s Ambassador to India, Reuven Azar, explained that the map was taken down, describing it as a "website editor’s mistake." The map had displayed the state of Israel alongside countries of the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation. After social media backlash, particularly on the platform 'X', where users flagged the error, Azar responded, "Website editor's mistake. Thank you for noticing. Was taken down." India consistently asserts that Jammu and Kashmir is an inseparable part of the country. This "map fiasco" occurred while Israel is engaged in conflict with Iran’s proxies in the Middle East.
