The results of the Lok Sabha elections 2024 have been surprising for the NDA and especially the BJP. Because the opposition alliance is getting a tough competition from India. This time BJP's victory over 400 is proving to be futile. Not only 400, even 300 seats are breaking. It seems that the opposition alliance has succeeded in capitalizing on the public's dissatisfaction with the Modi government.
This time the situation is different from the 2019 elections and the opposition is succeeding to some extent in capitalizing on the anti-incumbency wave against Prime Minister Narendra Modi. It also seems that the stand of the opposition leaders regarding the Ram Mandir inauguration ceremony was also politically correct. It seems that if the opposition had fielded a face against Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the post of PM, the results could have been very different. In such a situation, the opposition has said that if the election results come in favor of the Bharat Gathbandhan, the name of the PM will be announced within 48 hours. So here it has to be seen what could be the reason for the success of the Bharat Gathbandhan? Let's look at some reasons.
1. Opposition's narrative ran in the election campaign
During the election campaign, both the parties tried to set different narratives but it seems that the opposition was largely successful in raising the issues of ending reservation and changing the Constitution and despite trying all the ways, the BJP missed somewhere. PM Modi tried to neutralize the narrative of the opposition in his own style but it seems that people did not like political keywords like buyers, infiltrators, mangalsutra.
The impact of the dominance of 2 regional parties
Before the elections, a survey had said that BJP may face a tough challenge from regional parties. At that time, more than 200 such seats were announced across the country. The results are also indicating the same. Among the regional parties, Akhilesh Yadav's Samajwadi Party in UP, DMK in Tamil Nadu and Trinamool Congress in West Bengal have the most influence. Yes, Tejashwi Yadav's party could not perform well in Bihar. But Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena seems strong in Maharashtra.
3 Muslim voters with Indian Alliance
The exit poll results may not match the current trends but the survey about Muslim voters seems to be correct. It seems clear that India Block got the most votes from the Muslim community.
4. Youth want change and quick results
The exit poll also mentions the youth. It was found that most of the BJP voters are above the age of 35, but the two younger segments of the 18-25 and 25-35 age groups want change and quick results and there are indications that their votes have gone to the India Block.
5. In the Congress demonstration
This time the role of reform is also clearly visible. Rahul Gandhi also brought the Nyay scheme in 2019, but could not explain it. This time some add-on features were added, and it seems to have worked.
Rahul Gandhi had promised 5 Nyay 25 Guarantees from Congress during the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra. And since then, Congress leaders have emphasized on this issue throughout the election campaign. In which the promise of getting the first job under Yuva Nyay and giving one lakh rupees in the account of women under Mahila Nyay seems to be proving effective.
