While the nation looks forward to the upcoming Parliamentary Elections with a combination of hope and excitement, it is the election surveys and pre-poll analysis conducted by media houses that seems to calm down the immensely tense situation. In the latest opinion polls conducted by ABP-CVoter and India Today-Karvy Insights, the figures seem to be going against the all-pervasive impact of the NDA as seen in the 2014 Parliamentary Elections.
According to the trends shown in both these opinion polls, the NDA is shown to be losing out on a wide range of public votes in the elections that are coming up. Both these opinion polls came up with the conclusion that if the nation had its elections now, the NDA would lose its majority. Both the polls came up with identical numbers where they displayed that the NDA would lose around 100 seats which it holds at the moment. Let us now see the specific markers that these two polls have given to the opinion reflected through mood of the nation surveys throughout the nation.
The ABP-CVoter Survey said that the NDA was all set to get 233 seats while the UPA would most likely get 167 seats and the rest 143 seats would be bagged by parties that are not part of either of the coalitions.
The India Today-Karvy Insight indicated that the NDA would in most likelihood get around 237 seats and the UPA may get around 166 seats. The other parties will together bag around 140 seats.
While apprehensions may persist about whether the BJP would have a sweeping victory, the ABP polls show that in the states of Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh the BJP is predicted to get 24 of the 26 and 23 out of the 29 seats respectively.
In Bihar it is being estimated that the BJP-JD(U)-LJP combined is likely to trounce the ‘Grand Alliance’ by 35-5.
In the state of Uttar Pradesh, it has come to be estimated by the polls that BJP will lose 45-50 seats which it holds in the present.
The BJP holds 68 MPS in UP at the moment but it is likely to fall down to 25 because of the Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party.
In Odisha it is estimated that the BJP will 9 seats while the rest will go to the BJD. In Bengal, the BJP is predicted to get seven seats while the Trinamool Congress is predicted to get 34 seats.
