New Delhi: The Kerala Assembly election results 2016 , which are to be declared on Thursday, will mark a comeback for Left and a setback for Congress, if post-poll surveys are to be believed.

The Left is set to return to power in Kerala, two exit polls predicted on Monday evening.

The India Today-Axis exit poll gave 88 to 101 seats to the Left Democratic Front (LDF) in the 140-member assembly and 38-48 to the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF).

The BJP could get zero to three seats while one to four seats may go to others, it said.

The India TV-C Voter exit poll predicted 74-82 seats to the LDF, which is led by the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M).
