This was the first Assembly election in the past 10 years and the first since the BJP government revoked the state's special status under Article 370 in August 2019, when the Narendra Modi administration bifurcated J&K into the two Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh. The BJP registered its best-ever performance in the J&K election history by winning 29 seats, all in the Jammu region.
The National Conference won 42 of the 49 alliance seats, a significant increase from the 15 seats it secured in 2014. The Congress, on the other hand, managed to win only six seats, down from 12 in 2014, with just one seat in the Jammu region, marking its worst-ever electoral performance in the territory.
