Exit polls are predicting a big win for the BJP-led NDA government. The NDA is projected to get more than 350 plus seats. On the other hand, INDIA bloc is expected to win in fewer than 200 seats. After the exit polls, Prime Minister Narendra Modi reacted on Twitter and wrote that the INDIA bloc, “failed to strike a chord with the voters.”
A part of his post read, “I can say with confidence that the people of India have voted in record numbers to reelect the NDA government. They have seen our track record and the manner in which our work has brought about a qualitative change in the lives of the poor, marginalised and downtrodden. At the same time, they have seen how the reforms in India have propelled India to being the fifth largest global economy. Every scheme of ours has reached the intended beneficiaries without any bias or leakage..”
India has voted!
A heartfelt thank you to all those who exercised their franchise. Their active participation is the cornerstone of our democracy. Their commitment and dedication ensures that the democratic spirit thrives in our nation.
I would also like to specially…

He added, “The opportunistic INDI Alliance failed to strike a chord with the voters. They are casteist, communal and corrupt. This alliance, aimed to protect a handful of dynasties, failed to present a futuristic vision for the nation. Through the campaign, they only enhanced their expertise on one thing- Modi bashing. Such regressive politics has been rejected by the people.”
Earlier on Saturday, Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge had stated that the INDIA bloc parties would win over 295 seats.
The Lok Sabha elections were held in seven phases. The votes would be counted on June 4.
