The withdrawal of all the elections and counting day excitement ending on X is real.

Imagine a shop called Chandu ki Kulfi, famous for its rich, saffron Kulfi. It brings in fans in droves. Suddenly, people don’t like the kulfi any more. They find it gives them indigestion. Kulfi sales drop. And people are flocking to a new small shop called Chintu ice cream,…

When a company’s share is valued, it’s current revenue and profit matters way less than the direction and growth of where things are going. Same in politics. The direction and sentiment of where things are going matters more than absolute seats. Hence who won more matters less.

These results will have huge, potentially lasting impact on the BJP. If they only listen to their blind fans (who are only here to cheer and have no clue otherwise) and not see what just happened and do something big about it, this will have permanent impact.

The problem of surrounding yourself with dumb chamcha type blind fans is that when there is a crisis, these chamcha fans have no clue what to suggest or say. Funny seeing some chamcha type accounts trying to analyse the loss and being in total denial on what has happened.

My thoughts on today’s historical verdict, as on ABP News

EVM makers be like chalo at least nobody blaming us today.

Our forefathers died for democracy and freedom. Freedom and Democracy is in our DNA. We will never become like Russia or China. Ever. People’s verdict is the ultimate verdict.

Just as we expect ECI to release all data, exit poll bros should release all the raw data this time and explain how they reached 400 plus NDA projections. Genuine mistakes can be forgiven but if they don’t explain what happened people will doubt them forever.

Goldilocks election result - just right. Everyone has something to be happy about - BJP, Cong, Allies, Media, People.

So what’s it going to be? a BJP govt supported by TDP and JDU, both allies known for their unflinching loyalty and devotion?

Some exit polls had predicted 415 seats for the NDA. Kaise matlab? How did you get it so wrong?

The fraud exit polls are making the NDA performance seem worse than it actually is.

It’s a different India we live in and different political reality as of this morning. And thanks to the fraud exit polls nobody saw it coming. Anyway, whatever the verdict is, the people have spoken.

Why are results looking this way? What happened? Your thoughts? Top 2-3 reasons?

When we shot the @abpnewstv show in various cities of UP, the change in sentiment was visible. Thought will rely on the supposed to be rigorous scientific exit polls rather than the visible anecdotal data. Of course, the exit polls were stupid and the common man on UP streets…
