Vote count: Will it be Modi 3.0 or INDIA bloc surprise?

The ruling NDA led by BJP is projected by exit polls to secure a landslide victory, nearing PM Modi’s ‘400 paar’ target, while the opposition INDIA alliance struggles to cross 180 seats. The opposition has accused the EC of biased conduct and raised concerns over EVMs, prompting the BJP to seek EC’s intervention against potential unrest during counting. The results will determine Congress’ ability to challenge the BJP’s dominance amid its shrinking national footprint. Photo: NDTV
