As per the latest trends, the Congress is leading in 117 seats, four more than the figure which is required to form the government.

The BJP, which had failed to get the single majority even in the last elections, is leading in 71 seats.

The Janata Dal Secular, which is leading in 30 seats, could become the kingmaker if the Congress or any party fails to cobble up the required numbers.

Total Seats: 224
Majority: 113
Congress: 113
BJP: 76
JDS: 30
Others: 6
