	The seventh phase of Lok Sabha elections 2019 has concluded, bringing the curtains on the world&#39;s largest democratic exercise, which went on&nbsp;for over five weeks. Today, most exit polls forecast a majority for the ruling BJP-led NDA in Lok Sabha polls with varying numbers as the seven-phase polling in the general elections ended Sunday.<br />
	<br />
	<div>
		Two exit polls telecast by Times Now gave the NDA 296 and 306 seats, while they projected 126 and 132 for the Congress-led UPA. The CVoter-Republic exit poll has forecast 287 and 128 seats for the NDA and UPA respectively.</div>

		However, Neta-News X predicted that the National Democratic Alliance could fall short of the majority and win 242 seats. It gave the UPA 164 seats. Elections to 542 seats of the Lok Sabha ended Sunday. The majority mark is 272.&nbsp;The counting of votes will begin at 8 am on May 23.
