Congress leader Sonia Gandhi said Monday her party is very hopeful that the results of the Lok Sabha election will be totally opposite to what has been shown in the exit polls..

We are very hopeful that our results are completely opposite to what the exit polls are showing," she added..

The majority of exit polls indicate that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to secure a third consecutive term, with the BJP-led NDA projected to achieve a significant majority in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections..

While a few polls suggest that the NDA could secure over 400 seats, most predict a tally of over 350 seats, well surpassing the required 272-seat threshold for government formation..

However, the Congress and other parties in the INDIA bloc have criticized these exit polls, dismissing them as unrealistic and expressing confidence in the opposition alliance's ability to form the next government..
