SP-BSP-RLD alliance set for huge gains in UP, NDA fails to hold ground: News Chanel Survey Delhi: The SP-BSP-RLD combine is all set to outshine the BJP-led NDA in Uttar Pradesh in the coming Lok Sabha elections, a survey commissioned by ABP News-Nielsen has found. The BJP, which stormed to power in the Centre with the help of 71 out of 80 seats it had won in Uttar Pradesh in previous election, is projected to suffer a huge loss to its seat tally this time.

The SP-BSP-RLD 'Mahagatbandhan' is set to win a whopping 42 out of the 80 parliamentary seats on offer in the politically-crucial state while the BJP-led NDA is projected to play second fiddle clinching 36 seats, 37 less than what it had won in 2014. The Congress-led UPA, like the last time, is out of reckoning winning a mere two seats.
 
A key finding of the survey is that the NDA is slated to increase its vote share to 43 per cent in the coming polls from 42.6 per cent in 2014 but its seat tally will suffer a jolt. The SP-BSP-RLD combine is likely to get 42 per cent votes, one percentage point less than the NDA, but may get six seats more than the saffron coalition. The vote share of the Congress party will be confined to single digits (9 per cent).

Awadh Region

Uttar Pradesh's central Awadh region, which is political hotbed of the state, will witness a neck and neck contest between the 'Mahagathbandhan' and the NDA. Here, the NDA is projected to win 11 out of the 23 seats while the SP-BSP-RLD alliance may secure 10 seats. The Congress will be limited to two seats, retaining its traditional bastions of Amethi and Rae Bareli.

Western Uttar Pradesh

As per the poll projections, the 'Mahagathbandhan' looks in commanding position in Western Uttar Pradesh. The region which has a strong presence of the Jats, Gujjars and the Upper castes seems to be favouring the Bua-Bhatija combine over the NDA. While the 'Mahagatbandhan' is set to be the front runner winning 15 of the 27 seats, the NDA may get 12 seats. The Congress is out of the race, drawing a blank here.

Bundelkhand

The Bundelkhand region will see a pitched battle between the NDA and 'Mahagatbandhan'. Out of the four seats in the region, the NDA is projected to win Jalaun and Jhansi while the 'Mahagathbandhan' will add to its tally Banda and Hamirpur.

Purvanchal

The survey conducted in Purvanchal reregion predicts a gain for the super coalition with SP-BSP-RLD winning 15 seats and BJP falling short on just 11 seats. Congress which is also one of the front runners in the forthcoming polls is likely to win no seats in the Purvanchal region of Uttar Pradesh
