In Jharkhand and Jammu and Kashmir, the party has created history by notching up its best performances ever in the state Assembly elections. Though the BJP failed to live up to its own estimates of 44+ seats in J&K and 50+ seats in Jharkhand, still it got the largest 23 per cent vote share in J&K ahead of the pre-poll favourites, the J&K People’s Democratic Party (22.7 per cent), the ruling National Conference (20.8 per cent) and the Congress (18 per cent).
