The northeastern state of Assam holds the key for all political parties in the run-up to the Lok Sabha elections. As parties gear up for a fierce contest in the upcoming polls, ABP News, in association with CVoter, conducted an opinion poll in Assam to project a rough picture of the mind of the public in the state.
According to the survey, the Bharatiya Janata Party-led NDA alliance is likely to dominate the state, winning 12 out of 14 Lok Sabha seats, and the I.N.D.I.A. alliance, a bloc of opposition parties, is predicted to get a mere 2 seats. A glance at the vote share in the state as per the survey shows that the NDA is likely to get 45 per cent votes, I.N.D.I.A bloc is predicted to get 38 per cent while 13 per cent is likely to go to the AIUDF.
