All I can say that there is a trend suggesting that NDA is emerging as the largest coaliting," he added.On being asked about the prediction for Odisha assembly polls, The BJD leader further said, "The results we predict in Odisha may vary from the Exit polls as our assessment is accurate and our sample size for assembly polls is huge.""We are going to repeat the performance of 2014 in Odisha, however, it will be prudent to wait till May 23, when the results will be declared," he added.The Exit polls on television channels on Sunday projected the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) to retain power at the Centre with most of the pollsters giving Prime Minister Narendra Modi a clear majority again in the 543-member Lok Sabha.
