New Delhi (India), May 19 (ANI): Buoyed by the exit polls that give NDA a clear majority in the 543 member Lok Sabha, BJP leader GVL Narasimha Rao on Sunday said that the BJP was even more confident of doing better than the exit polls' predictions.
"The BJP will get a huge majority by itself although all the exit polls are giving a majority to the NDA. Most of the polls are giving NDA more than 300 seats," said Rao.
"It is clear that there is yet another Narendra Modi led NDA government at the Centre, but the BJP is confident of doing better than the exit polls predictions," he said.
"It is a public reaffirmation of faith in our Prime Minister. What Narendra Modi has done in Gujarat by scoring repeat victories, the same phenomenon is today evident at a national scale," he said.
Exit polls on television channels on Sunday projected the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) to retain power at the Centre with most of the pollsters giving Prime Minister Modi a clear majority again in the 543-member Lok Sabha.
