Accordingly with its looming defeat in delhi, the BJP-led nda has now lost power in six states in the last two years and the bjp, which had won just three seats in delhi last time, was expecting a much better performance this time. Reportedly delhi state bjp chief manoj tiwari had hoped to win 48 seats to enable the party to return to power in delhi afer over two decades. However, these estimates proved to be incorrect. There are now anti-BJP governments in 12 states, including Delhi. The nda now has governments in 16 states that account for 42 per cent of the nation's population.
Furthermore the congress is in power in maharashtra, rajasthan, madhya pradesh, Chhattisgarh, punjab, and puducherry either on its own or as part of an alliance. Perhaps after forming the government in jharkhand after the december election, the congress has governments in seven states now.

Moreover in tamilnadu, where the bjp fought the lok sabha election with the AIADMK, it does not have a single MLA. Therefore, it is not a partner in power. The nda was in a much better position in december, 2017 when the bjp and its allies ruled 19 states. Perhaps a year later, the bjp lost power to the congress in madhya pradesh, rajasthan and Chhattisgarh.
