Lok Sabha Elections 2024: US political scientist Ian Bremmer on Wednesday predicted 305 seats for the BJP in the ongoing Lok Sabha elections. "Prediction for elections for Eurasia group is 305±10 seats," he said while speaking to the news agency ANI. "Really not much of a change from what we saw 5 years ago."
Bremmer, founder and President of political risk research and consulting firm Eurasia Group, said India was an economy that had underperformed for a long time but was now doing a lot better. "This is also a country that was very inward-focused for a long time, but this region is now becoming much more of a global leader."
Ian Bremmer's prediction was somewhat in line with what political strategist Prashant Kishor predicted for the BJP on Tuesday. In an interview with India Today's News Director Rahul Kanwal, Kishor said that the BJP won't go down below 270 seats and most likely win 300-plus seats.
