Puducherry Assembly Election Results 2026

Puducherry’s 2026 Assembly election concluded with a closely watched result in the 30-member House, where alliances and local leadership once again proved decisive.
After polling was completed in April 2026, the counting of votes was held on 4 May 2026 along with other key state elections. The Union Territory saw an intense battle shaped by constituency-level equations across Puducherry, Karaikal, Mahe, and Yanam. Smaller seat margins in several constituencies ensured that post-result coalition arithmetic remained crucial. Welfare delivery, employment, tourism, and Centre-UT relations were among the major campaign themes.

The outcome is expected to shape governance priorities and alliance politics in Puducherry over the next five years.
