BJP's victories in Assam, West Bengal, and Puducherry reflect a changing political landscape and expanding footprint.(Rahul Singh | ANI)The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its alliance partners have emerged victorious in three of the five assembly elections, with results announced on 1 May. The latest victory signals the public's inclination towards the pitch for a “double engine” government. The latest trend indicates a significant shift in voter behaviour towards a state government aligned with the Centre.
West Bengal poll results
There are now 21 states where the BJP is in power at the state level. The PM Modi-led centre government seems to have championed the art of winning even at the regional level, where a shift in power was witnessed even in the stronghold territories of major opposition parties. Notably, the Bhabanipur assembly seat, which is regarded as a Trinamool Congress (TMC) bastion in south Kolkata, was lost to the BJP. The three-time chief minister of West Bengal lost Bhabanipur stronghold to Suvendu Adhikari by 15,105 votes.
Assam poll results
BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) scripted history on Monday by registering a record victory in the Assam Assembly elections. NDA managed to retain power for a third straight term, bagging 102 seats out of 126. The BJP alone crossed the majority mark of 64 by raking in 82 seats — 18 more than the required seats to form the government.
Puducherry poll results
In Puducherry, the BJP-led NDA managed to retain office by winning 18 seats, with the All India NR Congress (AINRC)at 12, the BJP at 4, the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) at 1, and the Latchiya Jananayaka Katchi (LJK) at 1. In the 30-member House, NDA comfortably crossed the 16-seat majority mark. Meanwhile, the INDIA bloc secured six seats, including DMK's 5 and one of Congress, while Independents won three.

What happened in the Kerala and Tamil Nadu poll results?
The five-state poll results, announced on 4 May, were significant, as they marked the first time since 1977 that no state in India would have a Communist government following the ouster of the two-term CPM-led Left Democratic Front (LDF) government in Kerala.
The Communist Party of India (Marxist) faced a severe setback in the Bihar assembly polls last year, when its tally plunged from 12 to 2 seats. A decisive mandate for the Congress-led UDF prevailed in Kerala as the alliance capitalised on a strong anti-incumbency wave and secured 102 seats in the 140-member assembly. The Pinarayi Vijayan government, which has been in power since 2016, received an “unexpected setback”, CPI(M) leader P Rajeev said on Monday. The Congress-led UDF secured 63 of 140 seats, while the LDF won 26.
In the Tamil Nadu poll results, “Thalapathy” Vijay made a blockbuster debut with his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), overthrowing the long-standing dominance of the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) and its arch-rival, the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK).
TVK won 108 seats and emerged as the single-largest party in the 2026 Assembly elections, but could not reach the majority mark of 118 seats. While DMK secured 59 seats, ADMK's final seat tally stood at 47 in the 234-member house.
