Bengaluru, May 15: “The ongoing Lok Sabha elections are approaching the final phases. The results will be announced in a few days. It will not be a surprise if I.N.D.I.A coalition block forms the government this time,” said Premchand Paletti, founder of C-Fore, an organization that conducts election surveys.

“Share and Satta markets can be predicted. Those depend on the reactions of the surveys. Most of the surveys have stated that BJP will not receive the expected number of seats,” he said in an interview to The New Indian Express (TNIE).

“The prime minister is speaking about matters that are dividing communities. The opposition parties are speaking about the black money of Ambani and Adani. Phulwama and Balakot had helped the BJP during the last elections. As there are no such issues this time, BJP is trying to bring religion to the core” he said.

“BJP is likely to lose seats in the four phases that have already polled. NDA is likely to win less seats than required for majority. Unemployment and inflation are the main concerns of the voters. Many voters do not like the monopolistic approach and the intention of the politicians which might reflect on the image of prime minister Modi.”     

“Karnataka, Telangana, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar are the states that could change the fortunes of BJP. But I.N.D.I.A bloc is likely to form the government,” he predicted.
