Eight months after the NDA failed to cross the 300-mark in the 2024 parliamentary polls, an India Today-Cvoter Mood of the Nation (MOTN) poll revealed that NDA is likely to put up a dominant show and win 343 seats if the Lok Sabha elections are held today, with the BJP projected to secure a simple majority on its own.
The poll shows that the Congress-led INDIA bloc, which punched above its weight to win 232 seats in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, will be down to 188 if the elections are held today.
The India Today-Cvoter Mood of the Nation (MOTN) poll was conducted between January 2 and February 9, 2025, surveying 125,123 individuals across all Lok Sabha segments. The survey included fresh interviews as well as long-term tracking data.
The survey projects massive gains for the BJP, giving it 281 seats if the polls were held today. The saffron party and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who had given a call for '400 paar', had come under opposition fire after it failed to get a simple majority on its own. The BJP had to depend on its allies, Nitish Kumar's JD(U) and Chandrababu Naidu's TDP, to form the government for a record third consecutive time.
