J&K Election Results 2024 Live: Counting of votes kicked off Tuesday morning for 90 Assembly constituencies in Jammu and Kashmir, marking the final stretch of an electoral journey that promises the union territory its first elected government since the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019. This is also the first assembly election in J&K since 2014.

As early trends emerged, Congress appeared to be in the lead in Haryana, pulling ahead on 24 seats compared to the BJP's 19. Interestingly, 'others' are showing up on two seats based on initial postal ballot counts. 

In Jammu and Kashmir, the race is tight, with the Congress-National Conference alliance tied at eight seats with the BJP, while the PDP has yet to make its mark. 

The counting commenced at 8 am, starting with postal ballots before transitioning to votes cast through Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) half an hour later. Keep in mind, these are just early trends, and final results could shift significantly as the day unfolds.

J&K Assembly Election Results 2024 Live: Opinions Divided Over LG's 5 MLA Rule

Legal experts have divergent views on whether Jammu and Kashmir lieutenant governor can nominate five MLAs at the time of government formation or at a later stage on the aid and advice of the council of ministers. The five members to be nominated by the LG will take the effective strength of the assembly to 95, where 48 would be the majority mark.

The LG's power to nominate these five MLAs assumes significance in wake of the exit polls predicting a hung assembly in the Union territory and a vexatious question arises whether nominated MLAs will have a role in deciding the majority in the House.
