Other regional parties lead in 19 seats, while the National People’s Party (NPP) leads in 13 and the BJP in six. The party reportedly rushed senior leaders to the state this morning, after initial trends were projected, to explore possibilities of alliances in a bid to retain control over the state. The Mukul Sangma-led government has been in power for the last decade.

Results in 26 constituencies including North Shillong and Sohiong have been declared with Congress winning 11 constituencies. The trends for Meghalaya 2018 Assembly elections show that Congress taking a comfortable lead in 23 seats. Other parties are close behind with 16 seats. While Congress has been ruling in the state for 10 years, two exit polls have predicted that BJP would make significant gains in the state.

Congress has fielded 59 candidates and BJP 47. NPP has 52 candidates in the fray.

NPP has gained major footing beyond the hills of Tura where it had a strong presence. NPP is in alliance with BJP at the Centre and in Manipur but in Meghalaya, the two are fighting battles on their own. All eyes will also be on the United Democratic Party (UDP), Hill State People’s Democratic Party (HSPDP) and Garo National Council (GNC) who have formed a pre-poll alliance and can play the kingmaker.
