Ahead of the counting for the 2019 Lok Sabha election result on May 23, the exit polls on Sunday predicted the majority seats for Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in the centre. In Mumbai, the Satta (betting) market has also put their money on the expectations that BJP will win more seats while Congress doesn’t seem to reach hundreds in the statistics.
According to the Satta market (or illegal betting market), the BJP will get around 240 seats while Congress will not cross more than 80 seats in the 17th Lok Sabha elections.
The bets placed in the Satta market suggest that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will yet again come to power for the second term. The bets have also been placed whether Congress President Rahul Gandhi will win from Amethi LS constituency or not.
