The Congress-Nationalist Congress Party is predicted to win only 6-10 of the total 48 Lok Sabha seats in Maharashtra, according to India Today - Axis My india Exit polls.
The Bharatiya Janata Party(BJP) and the Shiv Sena alliance is predicted to win more than 35 seats. The state had been often in news for agrarian distress but if the predictions hold good on counting day this would imply the state discounting agrarian distress to back the BJP in the centre.
Maharashtra state assembly elections are also due in 5-6 months time.
