NDA is inching towards 300 leads.
Thanks to South India and Odisha. NDA has swept Andhra, received good numbers from Telangana, and is performing better in Karnataka. Opening account Kerala.
 
Also Congress appears to be losing Chhindwara, its last bastion in MP, having won this seat 17/18 times since independence.
 
Suresh Gopi created History in Kerala.
BJP won its first seat ever in Thrissur Kerala.

Rajeev Chandrasekhar also leads in Thiruvananthapuram against incumbent & 3-time MP Shashi Tharoor
 
Meanwhile, Naveen Patnaik's supremacy ends in Odisha.
BJP to form the govt in state for the first time!
 
Kangana Ranaut won from Mandi, Himachal Pradesh.
Shee defeated one of the biggest leaders of Congress Vikramaditya Singh.
 
AAP's New Delhi seat candidate Somnath Bharti had recently said that he would shave off his head if BJP retained power at the Centre. The poll trends suggest a decisive lead for the NDA and the BJP ahead in all seven seats in Delhi.
 
So much for all the moaning about "Dictatorship" and "Death of democracy" in India. :)

People here really thought 1.4 billion Indians were that easy to dictate.
 
Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar's brother and Bangalore Rural MP DKSuresh has conceded defeat.
 
All said and done, this has been an incredible result for India the country.

- We got stability and continuity. Investors would've gotten extremely spooked by the prospect of a ragtag bunch of parties taking power at the center with no clear economic agenda. Once the dust settles after today's shock, they'll break out of the hysteria and realise nothing much has changed in terms of the "India story."

- BUT (and it's a big but!), Modi and his cronies got a harsh lesson in democracy and the power of the Indian voting public. It's possible to fool the public for a little while on nonsense stuff like a huge temple, CAA, uniform civil code...essentially playing with emotions but in the long term, the people are going on vote on what really matters to them - jobs, development and regional/local issues. A big gap to a standalone majority and having to depend on parties like the TDP, JDU to pass legislation will teach a lot of humility and curb their worst excesses.

- After a long while, we have a functional national opposition. Without that, bad stuff would've been possible. Perhaps this will help address some of the increasing judicial, bureaucratic, law enforcement and most blatantly media lean towards the BJP.

An election to renew your faith in India and it's future and one I'll remember for a long time.
 
Those who predicted 4 for BJP in Punjab seem to have conducted the survey in Punjabi Bagh

I didn't say anything on exit polls the moment i saw 26 in WB.

Wasn't going to happen. TMC virtually strangled any BJP vote with state machinery.
 
CBN officially says will be with NDA.
CBN can switch sides. The only reason he sided with BJP is to not complicate the false cases imposed on him by ycp .he can teach them a lesson now as he has so much leverage . Nitish and CBN both combined have 30 seats
 
BJP alliance holds its lead

The BJP-led NDA alliance is currently ahead in 281 seats while the Congress coalition defies exit polls by leading in 224.

The BJP on its own is leading in 236 seats the Congress on 99. A party or coalition needs 272 seats to form the government.

ALJAZEERA

CBN was jailed. BJP came to his rescue. They have previously run government with BJP successfully.
 
So it looks like NDA will retain power but with BJP getting less than 272 on its own. So Chandrababu Naidu will become king maker.
Two things are near certain though- Poopoo won't get to become PM and Yogiji can put aside his PM dreams for now, if he had any that is.
And one more thing, irrespective of the final result:
India is the greatest democracy the world has ever seen and the Indian election commission is the fairest and most efficient on the planet. Shame on those putrid trolls who doubted EVMs and cried about the death of Indian democracy in front of western audiences. They have been exposed as dimwitted clowns forever, even if some of them are winning elections.
 
No matter what anyone says, BJP not getting majority of its own is a huge W for the opposition

CBN won't jump this time, Pawan Kalyan is a pro-BJP guy, and he will make sure CBN sticks with the NDA.
Pawan is very firm, and he is the one who played key role to form this alliance with the NDA. Historically, TDP has always been with the NDA, and their origin is against the Congress. Only last time CBN had some issues with Modi and moved out of the NDA. But CBN also a master of U-turns like Nitish
 
Chandrababu Naidu and Nitish Kumar are the kingmakers now. They can dethrone Modi.

Will they do it ? I really hope they do. It's time for karma to play a part.

Agreed. Neither Nitish nor Chandrababu will want to be seen ditching the alliance immediately. They'll bargain hard for a couple of key ministries (Home? Commerce & Industries?) and fund allocations and stay in.

Medium term though, it's tough to say. They're both essentially weathervanes and will blow where the wind does.

Unless Amit Shah does his usual threats & bribes magic to engineer a bunch of defections, it's 50-50 whether Modi will complete this term.
 
In my areas all seat goes to Congress . Bharatpur , dausa, Karauli and Sawaimadhopur. Great job

This.
They will bargain.

They don't switch. They know that if they decide to move to the INDI block, they will have to share the piece of cake with 22 other parties, and soon they will start fighting each other like they did during the 10 years of UPA government.
In the NDA, they are the only two big allies, and they can play some role.

Rahul Gandhi currently in large lead in Kerela seat

Aside from running in Rae Bareli in Uttar Pradesh, Congress’ Rahul Gandhi is also seeking re-election from southern Kerala state’s Wayanad.

So far, Gandhi is leading by a whopping 350,000, with his current vote tally at 623,539. Annie Raja of the Communist Party of India, a fellow member of the Congress-led INDIA bloc, is in a distant second with 273,509 votes casted for her so far.

He was elected for the first time from Wayanad in 2019.

India allows candidates to contest multiple constituencies but they can represent only one.

I expected BJP to lose some seats compared to last time in all states, but I didn't expect this huge dent from UP.o_O

Luckily, Karnataka, Odisha, Telangana, and Andhra rescued.
 
Congress wresting 2 seats in Gujarat is a big surprise.
Maharashtra is an incredible story. The NCP & Shiv Sena were torn apart...left with not even their symbols. Massive use of money and law enforcement agencies to leave them a vestige of what they were. As it stands now

Devastating blow to the BJP! I expect we'll see a major churn in local leadership there. Ajit Pawar will defect back and the likes of Eknath Shinde will be shunted off.

Congress and its allies still had footprint in MH despite the obvious and huge misuse of ED and CBI and ECI but them winning 2 seats in Gujarat is huge.

As for MH politics going forward, expect MVA to form next government later this year, that is if feku doesn't play his dirty tricks yet again.
 
As for Ajit Pawar, he isn't much of a mass leader in any case. So he'll either go back to his uncle Sharad Pawar or be finished politically.
 
CBN won't jump this time,
Cbn will ask special status for andhra pradesh state,which was denied by bjp blatantly. Pawan kalyan hates Jagan to the core ,so he tries to use bjp power to decimate him.One good thing is that now bjp will not have enough support in rajya sabha ,so they will think only on development program than other nonsense
