New Delhi [India], June 1 (ANI): Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Saturday exuded confidence in forming the government of the INDIA bloc at the Centre after the Lok Sabha elections results will be declared on June 4 and said that the Bharatiya Janata Party will not cross 140 seats.
"INDIA alliance will form the government The truth is that the one who is sitting facing the sea has turned his back on the public. The people are also against them. What does '400 paar' mean? They (BJP) will not go beyond 140," Akhilesh Yadav told ANI on Saturday.

Everyone knows about exit polls under which everything is shown in a one-sided manner. It won't be effective this time. There will be surprising results in Bihar. There will be so many seats that BJP will not be able to form a government at the Centre."
