FIRST TWO PHASES OF LS ELECTIONS CONFUSE PARTIES

The general elections so far have been quite confusing. After the second phase of elections, the low voter turnout has put both political parties and pundits in a fix. Both are wondering about the outcome on 4 June. On the one hand, the ruling NDA has breathed a sigh of relief with the slightly higher voting percentage during the second phase in Hindi belt states like Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, while the low voting turnout in Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar has increased its concern. Apart from this, the voting trend of Maharashtra is also confusing. However, there is enthusiasm in NDA due to record voting in states like Assam and other northeastern states and Bengal. But in the Hindi belt, 7-8% less voting compared to 2019 is shocking.
