Lets more focus on current situation in the nifty 2019.....
Here, We can see that in the April month nifty moved in range of almost 1.5% from April 1 to 25 April it is almost 50 point down in the index value but the same time VIX going up constantly from 17 to 24 on 25th April. In last two days it fall slightly due to holiday coming in stock market for almost 5 days including Sunday.

Here, We can commonly conclude after studying both election period that VIX has rise vertically till election result out. So, in may 2019 it is expected to close near 28-30 before it reach election date of 23rd may 2019.
On the day of election one can short both call and put option below and above index rate on that date. It is expected to fall VIX from 30 to 15 in a period of 1 week. It can be good opportunity for option writer. Even one can book profit in the same days if position favors.
Look at the option chain of 25th April, 2019
One can see that option value of call and put both counting comes near 670 Rs. which is near 5.75%.

It is expected to rise near 7-7.5% by election date. One can closely check option premium both call and put. Before election nifty is expected to touch 12000 level and after election result comes as per poll expected movement in nifty might be near to 500 point maximum.
