Uttar Pradesh now has a total aggregate of 56.01 per cent after the first six phases. 13 of the remaining seats of the state will be under polling next in phase 7 on Saturday, June 1.

The state of Uttar Pradesh is often referred to as the most important state during any Lok Sabha Elections, because it has the most number of Lok Sabha seats, i.e. 80. The importance of this number can be understood by the fact that the state with the second most number of seats, Maharashtra has only 48 Lok Sabha seats in their account. Notably, Uttar Pradesh has also given India the most number of Prime Ministers, i.e., eight, which is four times more than the state at second position, which is Madhya Pradesh with two.

In 2019, BJP-led NDA won a total of 64 seats, out of which 62 were won by the BJP itself. Once again in 2024, BJP will contest most of the seats from the NDA alliance, while the seats will be distributed between the other parties contesting under the I.N.D.I.A alliance banner, i.e., SP, Congress, etc.
