Exit polls on Thursday forecast a tight contest between the incumbent TMC and the BJP in the high-profile West Bengal assembly polls, while the ruling Left combine was projected to retain power in Kerala and so was the case for the saffron party in Assam.

DMK-led opposition alliance  has been projected as a winner in Tamil Nadu, while the Congress-led alliance was seen losing Puducherry. In West Bengal, the Republic-CNX polls gave the BJP a slight edge by projecting 138-148 seats for the party in the 294-seat assembly and 128-138 to the TMC.
