With 80 seats in its kitty, Uttar Pradesh is the most important state in determining who comes to power in 2014. In 2009, it was the Congress' spectacular performance in UP that catapulted the party to the Centre. So this time for Narendra Modi to become the Prime Minister, the BJP has to win a substantial number of seats in order to stake a claim to form the government. Will the BJP sweep Uttar Pradesh? Is there a Modi wave in the state? Or will Mayawati make a comeback? Where does the Samajwadi Party stand in all of this? And is Modi's decision to fight from Varanasi symbolic? We discuss all this and more on The Big Fight.
