Siddaramaiah Backs Rahul Gandhi on Exit Polls Amid Karnataka's Political Showdown

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah supports Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's claim that the exit polls favoring Prime Minister Narendra Modi are biased. He confidently predicts that the Congress will secure 15-20 out of 28 Lok Sabha seats in the state. This comes as exit polls suggest a BJP-JD(S) sweep in Karnataka.

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Monday endorsed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's critical perspective on exit polls, referring to them as Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'media poll.'

Siddaramaiah asserted that the Congress party is poised to win 15-20 out of 28 Lok Sabha seats in Karnataka, despite exit polls predicting a BJP-led NDA majority in the upcoming elections.

Rahul Gandhi had previously labeled the exit polls as 'Modi media poll', and the predictions also suggest a BJP-JD(S) alliance sweep in Karnataka, with minimal chances for the ruling Congress to achieve a double-digit figure.
