Exit polls suggest a potential shift in BJP's strategy from "Aayega Toh Modi Hi" to "Todega Toh Modi Hi," indicating Narendra Modi's firm grip on India's political landscape. The predictions foresee a historic third consecutive term for Modi as Prime Minister, placing him in a league with Jawaharlal Nehru.

According to most exit polls, the BJP-led NDA is likely to secure over 350 seats in the Lok Sabha, with some forecasts nearing 400, echoing the party's slogan "abki baar, 400 paar!" Modi's influence is poised to expand from the north to the southern tip of India, including traditionally challenging regions like Kerala and Tamil Nadu, where the BJP is expected to make significant gains.

Modi has effectively turned anti-incumbency sentiments into pro-incumbency through his governance strategies since 2001, overshadowing challenges such as riots and demonetisation. Despite doubts about his influence following state elections in Himachal Pradesh and Karnataka, the BJP bounced back with victories in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Chhattisgarh, relying solely on the "Brand Modi."

The Modi-led NDA government's initiatives in rural areas, such as "Har Ghar Nal," free ration schemes, and Awas Yojana, have gained substantial support, contradicting accusations of neglecting the poor. Modi's direct engagement with women voters has also reaped rewards, encouraging independent political choices among female voters.

Modi's innovative outreach initiatives, including "Exam Pe Charcha" and "Mann Ki Baat," have expanded his audience reach, while his adept use of social media platforms has kept him relevant in the digital age. His bold decisions on issues like Article 370, GST, and demonetisation have displayed his readiness to take calculated risks for the nation's greater good.
