Although the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has won the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections, Indian voters have handed Narendra Modi an unprecedented setback. For the first time in a decade, the Hindu nationalist BJP has failed to form a majority in the lower house of the Parliament on its own, with the Congress-led INDIA bloc launching a surprise attack to hault the ruling coalition's march towards 300 seats—a far cry from its 400-seat target.
The Shiv Sena leader claims that the Election Commission is nothing but an 'extended branch of the BJP.'
Supporters of BJP and RJD have heated exchange over voting irregularities before they start firing shots.
In 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the Congress fielded candidates on 421 seats. In 2014, it contested 464 seats and in 2009, the party fielded candidates on 440 seats. T
Madhya Pradesh is voting for nine Lok Sabha seats while Uttar Pradesh is voting for 10 seats with 52 remaining. UP has 80 constituencies in Lok Sabha polls. Maharashtra is voting for 11 seats. Meanwhile, West Bengal is voting for four seats.
Several prominent figures, including Home Minister Amit Shah, former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, NCP leader Supriya Sule, and Samajwadi Party leader Dimple Yadav, are contesting in Phase 3.
BJP veteran and former chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan is contesting from Vidisha constituency, a saffron fortress which he had represented five times in Lok Sabha in the past, after almost 17 years, facing Congress candidate Pratap Bhanu Sharma.
