Narendra Modi. AFP[/caption]Narendra Modi supporters must understand that he needs at least 200-plus seats to form a government at the center, which is highly unlikely given the current scenario. His party, the BJP, is a serious contender in only approximately 270 to 300 seats and Modi needs to win at least 220 out of them, which is impossible given the fact he has hold only in North and Central Indian states (except Uttar Pradesh). So the result is out there. Even AB Vajpayee could not bring 200 seats at the height of his popularity and formed the government with 20 other parties. Modi would find it tougher to get five parties' support.
