"It is a psychological game" says Jairam Ramesh after exit poll predicts thumping victory for BJP-led NDA

New Delhi [India], June 2 : After exit polls prediction showed BJP-led NDA gaining a comfortable majority in the Lok Sabha elections, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said on Sunday termed it as a "Psychological game" and said that there will be a huge difference in exit polls and results on June 4.
"The outgoing PM, the person who will have to leave for sure on June 4 has conspired all these things and has managed the exit polls. There will be a huge difference in exit polls and results of June 4. INDIA Alliance had a meeting yesterday, we had detailed discussions on numbers, it's impossible that INDIA alliance will get anything below 295," he said.
He further stated that they had made 114 complaints to the Election Commission, out of which 14 were against the Prime Minister, but no action was taken in it.
"It is wrong to believe the exit polls. They are creating an atmosphere that these people are coming but in reality, these people will go. We have made 114 complaints to the Election Commission, out of which 14 are against PM. No action has been taken against them. Anyone will start laughing after seeing the exit polls in Karnataka. I am a Rajya Sabha MP from there and I know what the ground reality is," Jairam said.
"These exit polls are just to create an environment that the INDIA alliance has been lost, it's a psychological game. We will oppose this. We know that we will bid adieu to the outgoing PM on June 4," the Congress leader added.
Meanwhile, the India News- NewsX-D-Dynamics released its exit poll prediction for the Lok Sabha election 2024. As per the exit poll, the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is slated to win as many as 315 seats of the 543 seats on its own, and 371 seats in alliance with its NDA partners.
The Congress, meanwhile, will win as many as 60 seats, and 125 seats in alliance with the other INDI Alliance parties. Other parties that are not in alliance with the NDA or the INDI Alliance are expected to win 47 seats, it predicted.
It is pertinent to note that the INDIA bloc overall tally of 125 seats includes the three seats that might be won by the UDF in Kerala.
If the exit poll predictions come true on June 4 when votes are counted, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will become the only PM after Jawaharlal Nehru to win three successive terms in Lok Sabha polls. The exit polls predicted 'Modi 3.0' with PM Modi having led the BJP's poll effort through rallies and roadshows in various parts of the country.
