Exit Polls Predict Clean Sweep For BJP In Gujarat, AAP To Be A ‘Poor’ Third Behind Congress

In this episode of India Upfront, the host Rahul Shivshankar will be discussing how according to forecasts by TIMES NOW for Central Gujarat, which includes Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar, the BJP will win 61 seats with 47% of the vote. Here is how the state's overall vote share and final seat totals for the parties appear.
According to the results, BJP is expected to win 135–145 seats, followed by Congress with 24-34 seats and AAP with 6–16 seats. With 46% of the vote, the BJP will maintain its majority, followed by the Congress (23.4%) and Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) (24.2%). 5.7% of the vote will go to other. Gujarat Assembly elections' second round, which had 93 constituencies spread over 14 districts, is now over. 833 candidates had their fates decided by the votes of the state's residents. On Thursday, the first round of voting took place in 19 districts throughout south Gujarat, Kutch, and Saurashtra. Electronic voting machines determined the outcomes of 788 candidates. Exit poll results will be released later this evening to provide early estimates of prospective winners before the results are officially confirmed on December 8.
We are joined by a few panelists.
Jai Mrug explains the disparity in the number of seats & the vote percentage, including the gains made by the AAP as well as the impact of anti-incumbency on BJP's chances.
“Gujarat is integral to India's economy. Beyond the numbers of BJP, the way Congress is being projected,” said Sanju Verma, BJP Spokesperson.
“If the exit polls are to be looked at, AAP is the biggest winner with 0 to 25% jump,” said Sumanth Raman, Political Analyst.
“BJP is like 'US of 1993 after USSR has collapsed'... anytime Congress goes to number 3 in a state, it never recovers,” said Advocate Ishkaran Singh Bhandari.
“If AAP's share stands at 25% it's a good performance but BJP can't be defeated in its model state that way,” said Author Anand Ranganathan.
“AAP's vote share will not reach 25% but will hover around 10-15%,” said Ashutosh, Author.
“I don't agree that the opposition hasn't projected an alternative” said Dr. Muni.

Kejriwal should stay in Delhi and first give its people clean air to breathe before he goes out to help others. People should go to court against him for depriving them of their fundamental rights to live.

[monicaazad]

Delhi model is the biggest BS in the world

[shekhardeshpande]

Tragedy of Delhi if AAP wins MCD...that means fukat is more important to people than Delhi even if goes to dirt..

[dharinidevadiga]

AAP has to sweep the dirt from their party, it's certainly not sweeping the Gujarat election.

[arungupta]

Ashutosh- today you have played a journalist by exposing the confrontation aspect of Delhi model

[sk]

Har jagah they say Delhi model ..when he will go out from delhi what will be line..someone say Delhi education seems they did not study in Delhi

Anti-modi brigade desperate to project AAP for 2024. 😀😀

[melinachristina]

Keju must have given money to vote for him that’s the reason AAP win in Delhi 😅

[sunilmenon]

AAP will be National Party after Gujarat elections. What more a start-up party can expect in just 10 years period. Arvind Kejriwal self-made AAP single-handedly. Unlike Modi got platter from a stationed party

[krunaldesai]

Gujaratis are vaccinated from Khujli Decease. Khujli tumhe mubarak Delhi 🫣

[vasunarasimhan]

Exit polls will be wrong and will fail miserably. Aap winning 90 seats. Hung assembly likely in gujrat

[whocontrolthesenses]

Kejriwal ji to Likh ke diye thee...Us paper ko Aap ke HQ me rkhna chahiye

[yuvarajseker]

Double engine sarkar bakwaas in Delhi MCD.

[gau]

AAP will be a tougher opponent for the next assembly elections in Gujarat

[notsofunnygani]

BJP losing Delhi MCD to AAP will be major setback for Modi and co.

[HirenPatel-qwlf]
