NC-Cong to bite dust; PDP, BJP all set to capture 4 seats | Pre-poll survey | | Rustam JAMMU, Feb 14: The latest pre-poll survey predicted doom for the NC-Congress coalition and a great victory for the PDP and the BJP in Jammu & Kashmir. The survey was conducted across the nation and it said that the BJP-led NDA would win 227 Lok Sabha seats and the Congress-led UPA only 101 seats. The BJP will win on its own 207 seats, as against its 2009 tally of 116 and the Congress would lose more than 110 seats. In 2009, the Congress had won 206 seats. The survey was conducted between January 15 and February 8 and the results were made public by Times Now on Thursday. The survey was conducted by C-Voters for Times Now and the survey teams interviewed 14,142 eligible voters. As for Jammu & Kashmir, the survey said that the NC-Congress coalition, which had contested the 2009 Lok Sabha election together, would win only two seats. The NC and the Congress would win one seat each. The NC would win one seat in Kashmir and the Congress the lone seat in Ladakh. In 2009, the NC, which had contested election in all the three Kashmir Lok Sabha seats, had won all the three seats and the Congress, which had contested election in the two Lok Sabha seats in Jammu and one in Ladakh, had won both the Jammu Lok Sabha seats. The survey said that the BJP would snatch both the Jammu Lok Saba seats from the Congress and the PDP would capture two of the three Kashmir Lok Sabha seats. The findings of the survey appear convincing considering the fact that the anti-Congress and anti-UPA wave is sweeping the country, as also the fact that the NC-Congress ruling coalition has failed the people of Jammu & Kashmir on all fronts. If the present trend continues during the next 100-odd days, the NC-Congress coalition may not win even one seat out of six Lok Sabha seats. NC working president and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah and other NC leaders know all this and that's the reason they are insisting on a pre-poll alliance with the Congress. Similarly, the sitting Congress MPs would also want their high command to contest the coming general election in alliance with the NC as they know that the prevailing political environment in the state is against both the Congress and the NC. |
