    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Delhi, May 23 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; Within 2 hours  after counting of votes began, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has crossed half way mark and seems to be sweeping away the Lok Sabha 2019 Polls with good majority.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The fate of 8,049 candidates is underway, however, going by the early leads, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's BJP has crossed the halfway mark on its own.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The NDA is ahead in more than 300 seats. The BJP is doing well in most states, including the three heartland states of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Congress had won the Assembly elections in these states in December last year.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;According to reports, Congress president Rahul Gandhi is trailing in Amethi and Sonia Gandhi was also trailing in Congress bastion Rae Bareilly.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Elections were held on 542 of the 543 Lok Sabha seats and a party or alliance needs 272 seats to form government.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
