The BJP-led NDA alliance is projected to get a clean sweep in Uttar Pradesh with 74 out of 80 seats in the upcoming Lok Sabha Elections, a recent survey has suggested.


According to an opinion poll survey by ABP-CVoter, the I.N.D.I.A. alliance is likely to get only 6 seats dashing hopes for the opposition alliance in the crucial state, with the highest Lok Sabha seats.


The BJP has set a target of 370 seats in the Lok Sabha election 2024. The saffron party has its sights on all 80 seats in Uttar Pradesh and meticulously framing its Lok Sabha candidates list for the polls. 


Uttar Pradesh sends 80 Lok Sabha MPs to the Parliament, which is crucial to any political party for their electoral fortunes. 

 

The Election Commission is due to announce the election schedule any day now.
