Major gains in Karnataka, Rajasthan helped Congress increase seat tally
The ruling party's losses across seven major states negated marginal gains in others, and contributed significantly to it netting over 60 fewer seats compared to 2019.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has seen an 8 percentage point decline in vote share in Uttar Pradesh. This led to it losing 29 seats in India's most populous state.
It lost 13 seats in Maharashtra with a decline in vote share of 1 percentage point. Rajasthan vote share is down 9.2 percentage points, with it losing 10 seats.
Karnataka, West Bengal and Bihar also saw the loss of 19 seats. Voting share was down between 1.5 percentage points and 5.4 percentage points.
The analysis considered the top 12 states in terms of Lok Sabha seats. Ten of these had significant vote shares for the BJP and the Congress individually.
