Despite their varied predictions, exit polls have hinted at a comfortable majority for the BJP-led NDA coalition.
Various pollsters predict a wide range of seats for the ruling NDA, with estimates ranging from 353 to 383 seats for the BJP-led alliance and 152 to 182 seats for the opposition INDIA bloc. Some polls even project over 400 seats for the NDA. If these predictions hold true, Modi would match Jawaharlal Nehru’s record of leading his party to victory for a third consecutive term.
