Of the five states that go for polls, the country is most interested in the outcomes of Uttar Pradesh and Punjab. Several news channels have put forth their surveys regarding who they think will come to power and who will finally become the chief minister in these two states. However, they are not the only ones speculating – betting rings across the country also have their eyes set on the results.

According to sources, Indore and Gujarat’s betting game has made it clear which parties they think would come to power in Uttar Pradesh and Punjab.

The betting game follows a reverse pattern – minimum returns are received from the party most likely to win. Punters refer to it as a return of 25 paise for every one rupee because people bet most of their money on this particular party.
