Exit polls prediction brought more stress to Congress
Seat projections in exit polls released were unanimous on BJP retaining office in Maharashtra and Haryana.
In Maharashtra, the BJP -Shiv Sena combine appears set to return with the tally ranging from 166 to 244, according to the exit polls.
In Maharashtra, the Congress-NCP alliance seems to be holding some ground in the western part of the state, its bastion.
But here, the influx of influential Maratha politicians to BJP and Sena may have boosted the alliance.
Though exit polls have been known to err, the projections will please Modi and BJP chief and home minister Amit Shah as oppositon's campaign about a stalling economy has not influence much voters.
