ABP News-CVoter is leaning the other way, giving the Congress 32-38 seats in the 70-member Assembly and the BJP 26-32.
Goa is poised to see a tight race, according to India Today-Axis My India, ABP News-CVoter, Republic P-Marq and ABP News-CVoter. A hung house is likely in Goa, if exit polls are to be believed.
Manipur apparently will be an easy win for the BJP, the exit polls predict.
