BJP's Bansuri Swaraj Claims Victory After Temple Visit

Late Sushma Swaraj's daughter, Bansuri Swaraj, who is contesting from Delhi against AAP's Somnath Bharti in the 18th Lok Sabha contest visited a temple this morning to seek blessings for the Bharatiya Janata Party and claimed she is sure that the people of this country will once again choose the beneficial policies of PM Modi and he will return for third prime ministerial term. The Exit Polls have predicted a historic third term for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Only one, though, has carried the NDA across its dream score of 400 of 543 Lok Sabha seats. The BJP, too, has been placed far short of its 370-seat target. The INDIA bloc, five exit polls predicted, will fall massively short of the 285 seats predicted by Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge after the Exit Polls were announced. An aggregate of seven exit polls indicates that the NDA will get 361 seats, the INDIA bloc will get 145 seats. The BJP's individual score will be 311 seats and the Congress 63, up from the 52 seats it won in the last general election.
