Riding on the massive victory of the Aam Aadmi Party in the Delhi civic polls, Punjab Chief Minister on Wednesday claimed that the exit polls which predicted the party's loss in Gujarat will prove to be wrong.
The exit-poll survey of Gujarat Assembly polls has indicated a full majority for BJP and it will have an impact on Karnataka also, said Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai.
Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Tuesday exuded confidence in a BJP victory in Karnataka elections and said a victory in Gujarat assembly polls will increase votes in this state polls by at least 3 to 5 per cent.
The exit polls predicted that the BJP is on course to a handsome victory in Gujarat and could create a record in terms of seats won. They also predicted that AAP will open its account in the Gujarat assembly and will finish third behind the Congress and BJP.
Addressing the press at the end of polling in the final phase, Bharathi said, "Senior citizens above 80 years of age voted and even disabled came out in numbers to vote. Wheelchairs were arranged for them."
Earlier on November 13, the Election Commission of India prohibited the conduct of any exit poll and publishing the result of exit polls from November 12 to December 5, 2022.
Aam Aadmi Party chief ministerial candidate Isudan Gadhvi cast his vote in the second phase of the Gujarat Assembly elections and said that he expects his party to win over 100 seats.
