2024 Lok Sabha Election Results

The Election Commission of India has announced the results for 542 out of 543 Lok Sabha constituencies, with the BJP securing 240 seats and the Congress obtaining 99. Early Wednesday results indicate that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to form the government for a third consecutive term, as the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) has achieved a majority in the Lok Sabha despite significant defeats in three Hindi heartland states after a fiercely contested election viewed as a referendum on Modi’s popularity.

The BJP, whose candidates campaigned under Modi’s leadership, won 240 seats, falling short of the 272 needed for a majority and thus requiring support from NDA allies to form the government. This is a notable decline from the 303 and 282 seats it secured in 2019 and 2014, respectively, when it had a standalone majority.

With backing from key allies such as N Chandrababu Naidu’s Telugu Desam Party (TDP) with 16 seats in Andhra Pradesh and Nitish Kumar’s JD(U) with 12 seats in Bihar, along with other partners, the NDA surpassed the halfway mark.

The Congress, part of the opposition INDIA bloc, won 99 seats, up from 52 in 2019, cutting into the BJP’s share in states like Rajasthan and Haryana.
