Narendra Modi To Lose If Opposition Unites: India Today-Karvy Poll

India Today-Karvy survey predicts a rout for Narendra Modi if Congress, SP, BSP and TMC come together

A ‘Mood of The Nation’ survey conducted by India Today and Karvy has predicted that the Narendra Modi-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) could fall short of the majority mark in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

The survey predicts a tally of 237 seats for the BJP-led NDA, down by 99 seats from its 336-seat sweep in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. The UPA, on the other hand, is predicted to win 166 seats, a gain of 107 from its tally in 2014.

In terms of vote share, the UPA has narrowed the gap even more. According to the survey, the NDA’s estimated vote share is 35 percent, while that of the UPA is 33 percent.

A key role is likely to be played by ‘Others’, who are predicted to win 140 seats with a combined vote share of 32 percent.
