As the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 come to an end, political consultant and tactician Prashant Kishor has made a prediction for the ruling Bharatiya Janta Party. Kishor's predication also comes hours before the exit polls for the 2024 general elections are set to begin.

Hours before Exit Polls 2024, Prashant Kishor has predicated that the BJP will come back for a third term as the government.

Speaking in an interview to the The Print, Kishor stated: "According to my assessment, the BJP is going to come back with the same or slightly better numbers. In western and northern India, I don't see a significant shift in the number of seats. The party has gained adequate support from regions in the east and south of India".

The election strategist has also predicted an increase in the number of seats for BJP in the southern states - especially in Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu.
