The hill state had voted in two phases – on February 28 and March 5. The counting of votes will be held on March 10.

The BJP, notably, had formed the government in Manipur in 2017 with the support of the National People's Party (NPP), Naga People's Front (NPF), and the Lok Janshakti Party (LJP). However, the saffron party is contesting all the seats on its own this time.

The Congress has formed an alliance with CPI, CPI(M), Forward Bloc, RSP and Janata Dal (Secular). In the 2017 state polls, the grand old party had emerged as the single largest party winning 28 of the 60 seats.
