GUJARAT EXIT POLLS SO FAR | Exit polls have predicted a victory for the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Gujarat, giving it a clear majority in the keenly-contested Assembly elections in PM Narendra Modi’s homstate. The Times Now-VMR Exit poll predicted 115 seats for the BJP and 64 for the Congress, with the remaining seats going to other parties. The Republic-C Voter Exit Poll gave the BJP 108 seats and the Congress, 74. The ABP-CSDS survey by ABP News predicted a BJP victory in 117 seats as against the Congress's 64. A survey by India Today's 'Aaj Tak' news channel also predicted that the BJP, which has been ruling Gujarat for almost 20 years, would retain power in the state.

Psephologist-turned-politician Yogendra Yadav weighs in on the exit polls. “Am surprised, but no reason to disbelieve all exit polls, since they all point in the same direction. We can’t still be sure of seats, but it seems clear that BJP enjoys an edge in Gujarat. Vote share estimates of all major polls show a clear lead for BJP: CSDS-ABP 9%; Axis-India Today 5%; MVR Times Now 6%. That looks clear and decisive, though we can’t be sure of the number of seats,” he said in a series of tweets.
