2024 Lok Sabha Elections: Exit Polls Missed The Mark
Most of the pollsters claim that the way of predicting seats and vote share is based on scientific data gathering principles, however, there have been more than often instances where the Exit Poll predictions have gone wrong with the most recent being that of Lok Sabha election results 2024.
Ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, at least 12 exit polls had forecast a sweeping victory for the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), with some projecting the alliance crossing the 400-seat mark. However, the actual results turned out to be quite different. The NDA secured 293 seats, significantly lower than predicted. The BJP, in particular, fell short of a simple majority, winning only 240 seats—a drop of 63 seats from the 303 it held in 2019. In contrast, the Congress-led INDIA bloc won 235 seats, further highlighting the inaccuracy of the exit polls.
