A fuzzy expert system is a form of artificial intelligence that uses a collection of membership functions as fuzzy logic and rules to reason about data. India is being the largest democracy in the world; therefore rule based fuzzy expert system for prediction of Indian General Election results has applicable importance. For proper growth and development of any country there is need of democratic governance. Election is very famous in same way the prediction of election results is also has great importance. Authors has designed & developed the fuzzy expert system which predicts election results in India. Authors studied the voting behavior of voters of India by survey. System accepts input as behavioral parameter those are linguistic variables considered for prediction of chances of winning candidate or party. Fuzzy logic toolbox from MATLAB is used for designing and development of fuzzy expert system. The Fuzzy Expert System “FuzzyExitPoll” also works like exit poll as well as opinion poll. This research help to predict the election results so respective action should done by that particular party or candidate to win the elections.
