An internet data analysis says the BJP could get between 220-222 seats and about 35 per cent vote share in Uttar Pradesh.

An artificial intelligence analysis of internet engagements across parties shows the Bharatiya Janata Party is far ahead in its online push and this could translate into 220-222 seats for the party in the Uttar Pradesh assembly election, the results for which will be announced tomorrow.

Perhaps for the first time in India's history, the country has a prime minister who responds rather readily to tweets, in fact he once presented a scarf to someone who praised it on Twitter and frequently shares stories of his travels on social media. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's love and belief in the power of technology is all too well known.

An internet data trend analysis carried out by  MogIA, an Artificial Intelligence system, that used an engagement pool of 1.7 million plus active identities and traced about 16 million conversations (nearly about 18 per cent of the electorate) show that the BJP could actually get between 220-222 seats and about 35 per cent vote share.
