Advantage for Congress-DMK in Tamil Nadu

The 2019 Lok Sabha polls would be the first without Tamil Nadu veteran politicians Jayalalithaa and Karunanidhi in a very long time.

The Congress looks to have hit the jackpot following their alliance with the DMK. The alliance is expected to win a whopping 34-38 seats. If the odds go in their favour, they could sweep the entire state. The AIADMK and BJP are expected to win a maximum of 4 seats in the state of Tamil Nadu, the India Today Axis survey have predicted.
