New Delhi/Mumbai: If pollsters are to be believed, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is headed for a landslide victory in both Maharashtra and Haryana Assembly elections.

The Newsx Polstrat exit poll gave the BJP between 75 to 80 seats and only 9 to 12 to the Congress and 4 to others.
The BJP's poll slogan in Haryana was "Abki baar, 75 paar".
The BJP ran an aggressive campaign emphasising on national security and abrogation of Article 370.
The BJP charge was led by PM Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh in both the states.
The Congress had a lacklustre campaign with former party president Rahul Gandhi addressing a few rallies. No other prominent Congress face was seen in the rallies. Sonia Gandhi had to skip her lone rally in Haryana's Mahendragarh.
Exit polls are not always known to be correct. It is a poll of voters taken immediately after they exit the polling stations.
