- BJP rides on Modi wave to a massive victory in UP
- Congress gets another chance to rule Punjab
- BJP achieves unassailable lead in Uttarakhand
- Hung Assembly likely in Goa and Manipur
Holi arrived two days early for Bharatiya Janata Party as it was set to sweep back to power in Uttar Pradesh this morning after 15 long years, giving Prime Minister Narendra Modi his biggest victory after the 2014 Lok Sabha polls. The results proved wrong the fears of a hung Assembly. A majority of exit polls had predicted a hung House, with the BJP ahead of the Samajwadi Party-Congress alliance, which was way behind the saffron party.
