This is the first election in the state after the delimitation exercise of 2023 redrew constituency boundaries. Although the balance of seats won by the incumbent alliance and the opposition is largely similar to the previous election, the pattern of voting that produced the present verdict points out notable shifts. Using both aggregate and survey data, this paper would argue that the verdict constitutes a triumph for the NDA while also concealing underneath a story of its approaching saturation and a debacle for the opposition that however opened up the possibility of its resurgence in Assam.-Reproduced https://mpissr.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/MPJSS-292-December-2024.pdf  aElections, Assam, Coalition, Opposition, Dominance, Polarisation. aMadhya Pradesh Journal of Social Sciences
