Lok Sabha Results 2024: BJP Loses Majority, What’s Next?
In a dramatic political turn, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has fallen short of the majority mark in the Lok Sabha elections 2024, marking a significant shift in India’s political landscape. While the BJP emerged as the single largest party, it failed to secure the 272 seats required to form the government independently — a contrast to its landslide victories in 2014 and 2019.
This result has opened the door to intense coalition negotiations, with the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) seeking support from smaller regional parties to stay in power. Meanwhile, the opposition INDIA bloc, led by the Congress and key regional forces, is pushing for a united front to challenge BJP’s leadership and propose an alternative coalition.
Political analysts say this fractured mandate reflects growing dissatisfaction among voters over key issues such as unemployment, inflation, and social polarization. The results have also strengthened the relevance of regional players like TMC, DMK, SP, and AAP — making them kingmakers in the new power equation.
