This is a gain of 41 seats from the previous election where the BJP had got 73 seats.

The Congress on the other hand is projected to end up with a tally of 83 seats, down 17 seats from the previous tally of 100.

The BJP is riding on a massive 7 per cent vote swing in its favour which will increase the seat tally by 41 seats.

BJP is projected to get 45.8 per cent vote share, up from 38.8 per cent in the previous election.

The Congress is also gaining vote share by 1.7 per cent and is projected to get 41 per cent vote share.

It is a two horse race and the BJP and Congress are gaining vote share from BSP and Others category which is seeing a negative swing of 9 per cent. This is where the vote share gains for BJP and Congress are accruing from.

The Congress government in Rajasthan led by Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot is seen to be performing badly on the issue of law and order, as per the survey.

However, the state government schemes like LPG cylinder for Rs 500 to BPL card holders will help the Congress in the elections.
