Key Contenders
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, leader of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), is seeking a third term with almost all exit polls predicting a landslide win for his party, the BJP. The ruling alliance is pitted against a broad alliance of opposition parties, including important regional parties, called INDIA represented by senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.
Exit Poll Predictions
A majority of exit polls projected that Modi may extend his decade in power with a third consecutive term, on the back of economic performance and the inauguration of the Ramjanmabhoomi Mandir in Ayodhya. Another victory will cement the 73-year-old as one of India’s most popular and important leaders.
It will follow a thumping win in 2019, when the BJP clinched an absolute majority by sweeping 303 Lok Sabha seats while the Congress managed only 52. He first swept to power in 2014 on promises of economic development, presenting himself as an outsider cracking down on corruption.
