A fresh opinion poll released for the Lok Sabha elections to be held next year predicts the incumbent BJP-led NDA to retain power, but lose single-party majority status.
The 'Mood of the Nation' survey, conducted by India Today group, predicts the NDA to hold on to power with a simple majority, extending barely 9 seats beyond the halfway mark. On the other hand, the Congress-led UPA is likely double its tally to 122.
NDA vs UPA vs Others: Here is the seat-wise forecast
| PARTIES | SEATS FORECAST |
| NDA | 281 |
| UPA | 122 |
| OTHERS | 140 |
Notably, others here include the Trinamool Congress, Telugu Desam Party, Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party and Left, among others -- which have not entered into a pre-poll pact with the Congress. The parties, however, may form a coalition with the Congress-led UPA ahead of the elections next year.
If the survey predictions will turn out to be accurate, the Narendra Modi-regime will turn more dependent on allies as the BJP will lose its single-party majority status.
