Polstrat and People’s Insight forecast 362 seats for NDA

With a projected tally of 362 seats, the NDA seems poised for a triumphant third consecutive term. However, amidst the anticipation of an NDA landslide, the ambitious target of “400 paar” may remain just beyond grasp.

The survey captured the sentiments of a staggering 25 lakh respondents from April 7th to April 13th, 2024.

Despite formidable hype and projections, the opposition grouping, INDI Alliance, comprising the Congress party and others, languishes far behind with an estimated 120 seats. Even with the potential addition of seats from parties like the All India Trinamool Congress (AITC) and the Aam Aadmi Party in Punjab, the opposition seems unlikely to pose a significant challenge to the NDA's dominance. Should these two parties be added under the INDI Alliance banner, AITC's 21 seats and the Punjab's eight seats would take the opposition coalition's tally in the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 to 149 seats.
