Exit polls predict huge win for BJP-led NDA in the East and South

Exit polls predict huge win for BJP, In this Lok Sabha election, BJP had given the slogan of ‘400 paar’ for its alliance. At present, three surveys have predicted that BJP will get 400 or more seats. If the exit polls prove to be true, Modi will equal the record of the country’s first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru in leading his party to victory in the elections for the third consecutive time. In the 2019 elections, BJP won 303 seats, while NDA’s number was 353. Congress got 53 seats and its allies got 38 seats.

After the completion of the last phase of Lok Sabha elections, exit polls (post-election surveys) came out. In all the surveys, the Bharatiya Janata Party led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has been predicted to get an overwhelming majority. Among these, the ruling coalition NDA is expected to open its account in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Along with this, it is also predicted that Karnataka will again achieve a one-sided victory.


An aggregate of seven exit polls suggests that the NDA is poised to secure 361 seats, while the INDIA bloc is projected to obtain 145 seats. Within this, the BJP is anticipated to clinch 311 seats, whereas the Congress is expected to secure 63 seats, marking a notable increase from the 52 seats it secured in the previous general election.

The highest forecast for the NDA, ranging between 371-401 seats, originates from the exit poll conducted by India TV-CNX. Conversely, it anticipates the Opposition bloc to secure 109-139 seats. Following closely, Jan ki Baat predicts the NDA to secure 362-392 seats and the INDIA bloc to secure 141-161 seats.

On the contrary, the lowest score for the NDA, spanning 281-350 seats, is presented by Dainik Bhaskar, with a corresponding higher projection for the INDIA bloc, ranging between 145-201 seats.Even in Tamil Nadu, the BJP is anticipated to make inroads, securing at least two seats, while in Kerala, exit polls predict the party to secure one seat.

In Bengal, the BJP is projected to push up its 2019 tally of 18 seats to 22, surpassing the dominant Trinamool Congress (TMC) for the first time. Mamata Banerjee’s party is anticipated to secure only 19 of the state’s 42 Lok Sabha seats.
In neighbouring Odisha, the BJP is expected to perform even better, securing 15 of the state’s 21 seats and marginalising Naveen Patnaik’s Biju Janata Dal (BJD), which was once the undisputed choice of the populace.

The BJP is also anticipated to maintain its stronghold in states like Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Assam, and the national capital. 

Exit polls predict that Arvind Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party, along with its ally Congress, may once again fail to secure a single seat in Delhi. However, the two parties are expected to perform well in Punjab, where they engaged in a friendly contest. Of the state’s 13 seats, the Congress is expected to secure 5, and AAP, 4.
