Prashant Kishor is sticking to his poll forecast with about 24 hours left for the exit polls. The weeks long voting process for the Lok Sabha elections gets over tomorrow. The final phase of the seven phase Lok Sabha election will be finished tomorrow with polling in 57 parliamentary seats across seven states and the Union territory of Chandigarh. After the final phase of voting ends all eyes will be on exit polls. The news channels are allowed to air exit polls from 6:30 pm tomorrow.
Speaking with Vir Sanghvi at The Print, Prashant Kishor said that he expects Modi-led BJP to get same number of seats it bagged in 2019 elections or may perform even better. «To my mind, BJP is going to come back with similar or slightly better majority. In my assessment, in west and northern India, I don't see BJP taking a material hit in terms of seat,» he said. BJP had bagged 303 seats in 2019 Lok Sabha polls, with bulk of seats from northern and western India.
Prashant Kishor said the he does not foresee BJP losing that many seats from north and west India and the BJP has got «adequate cover from east and southern India.'

«I see BJP increasing their seat and vote share from the east and south India so I have said that BJP is likely to a similar number of seats if there is no material damage from west and north,» Prashant Kishor said.
