With voting for the fifth and last phase of Jharkhand Assembly elections coming to an end on Friday, exit poll numbers predict that the pre-poll alliance of Indian National Congress (INC) and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) may go on to form majority in the assembly.

The state saw a six-way battle with two national parties, the ruling BJP and main opposition party Congress battling it out with the smaller regional parties like AJSU Party, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), Jharkhand Vikas Morcha (Prajatantrik) and Rashtriya Janata Dal trying to play a major part in this assembly elections. The JMM fought in 43 seats while its alliance partners Congress and the RJD fought in 31 and seven seats, respectively.
