Lok Sabha Elections 2019 Results LIVE Streaming:

The suspense is set to end as the counting of votes for the seven-phase elections to lower house of parliament is taking place on Thursday, bringing the curtains down on a hard-fought contest. Most exit polls have predicted that the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is on course to retain power for a second term, riding on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's charisma like the way he swept to power in 2014. But, many opposition leaders have trashed the exit polls numbers and are hopeful of a turnaround today.

What happened in 2014?

In the last Lok Sabha elections, the BJP won 282 seats while the Congress had suffered a severe drubbing getting an all-time low of 44 seats as against 206 it won in 2009. This year, in a first, EC will tally vote count on Electronic Voting Machines with voter-verified paper audit trail slips in five polling stations in each assembly segment of a parliamentary constituency. It will effectively mean that out of nearly 10.3 lakh polling stations, the EVM-VVPAT matching will take place in 20,600 such stations. This can delay the final results. 

Key leaders to keep an eye on

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, several union ministers, Congress President Rahul Gandhi, UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi and SP chief Akhilesh Yadav are among key leaders who contested the polls. EC officials said the voting percentage of 67.11 this time was the highest ever-voter turnout in Indian parliamentary elections.
