BJP-led NDA Alliance secures majority
|
New Delhi – The results of the Lok Sabha elections are out, and the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) once again secured a clear majority but at the same time, there has been a significant decline in the number of seats won by BJP. In the last election, the BJP won 303 seats, but this time they have leads in only 240 seats. Meanwhile, the Congress-led INDI alliance is leading in over 230 seats. In the Exit polls, it was predicted that the BJP alliance would win 400 seats, but all these predictions have proven to be inaccurate. Similarly, it was forecast that the Congress alliance would secure between 150 and 170 seats, but this projection has also turned out to be incorrect.
