NewsX Neta Exit Polls predicts the NDA to secure 242 seats, 30 short of the 272 required for a majority. The UPA is predicted to win 164 while Others are expected to win 136.
As the final phase of 2019 elections come to an end and the Exit Polls are out, it is important to look at the changes that India’s society has undergone over the last couple of years.
If this trend holds, there's a good reason to believe that the BJP may well cross its 2014 tally and might even hit the 300 mark as Prime Minister Modi, Amit Shah and the BJP have constantly maintained.
As per the current predictions based on "past election results, current alliances and losses due to discontent with the Modi government", the NDA will win 166 seats while the UPA will end up with 200.
Throughout its election campaign in the state, BJD had maintained that it will retain its 2014 clean sweep of Lok Sabha seats in the state and will play a decisive role in forming the next government at the centre.
