Jun 01, 2024
Jammu (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], June 1 : Jammu and Kashmir unit BJP President Ravinder Raina said that the people of the country have put "immense trust" in Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the third time after exit polls predicted a thumping majority for the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
"According to surveys conducted by various agencies and channels, BJP and NDA are winning a huge majority. The people of the country have put immense trust in PM Modi for the third time...," Raina told ANI on Saturday.
"I am hopeful that on June 4, the poll counting day, a BJP government will be formed under the leadership of PM Modi. Modi Sahab is residing in the hearts of crores of Hindustani's. As a dedicated worker, PM Modi served the nation in the last ten years," Raina added.
The exit polls predicted that the ruling BJP-led NDA is poised to improve its performance over its 2019 record when it won 352 seats. Two exit polls predicted the BJP also improving its numbers from the 303 seats it won in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.
The BJP-led NDA improved its numbers in 2019 Lok Sabha polls compared to the 2014 election. It is again poised for an upward trajectory, the exit polls predicted. The pollsters gave varying numbers to the INDIA bloc, a grouping of parties opposed to the BJP, but predicted that it will perform better than the Congress-led UPA in 2019.
Lok Sabha elections were held in seven phases from April 19 with Prime Minister Narendra Modi steering the BJP campaign. Votes will be counted on June 4.
The exit poll outcome was declared after the conclusion of polling for the seventh and final phase of Lok Sabha polls on Saturday.
Simultaneous assembly polls have also been held in Odisha, Andhra Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim apart from assembly bypolls in several states.
