Lok Sabha election results 2024: Akhilesh Yadav hails ‘intelligent voters’ of UP for victory of INDIA bloc, PDA | India News – Times of India

LUCKNOW: SP chief Akhilesh Yadav on Wednesday said the success of the INDIA bloc in Uttar Pradesh is the victory of the backward classes, Dalits and minorities, and attributed it to the PDA strategy and efforts put in by the alliance. The former Uttar Pradesh chief minister, who fought the elections on the plank of PDA (Pichada, Dalit and Alpasankhyak) unity, said voters have proved that no force and deceit is more powerful than people's power. "Dear intelligent voters of Uttar Pradesh, the victory of India bloc in the state is also the victory of the Dalit-Bahujan trust which, along with backward, minority, tribal, 'half population' (women) and all neglected, exploited, oppressed, backwards among the upper castes, has fought shoulder to shoulder to save the Constitution that gives the ...

After June 4 Mega Verdict, All Eyes On NDA, I.N.D.I.A Meeting On Wednesday

The much-anticipated day of June 4, the counting day for the Lok Sabha elections 2024, was filled with unexpected twists and turns. The mixed response, with the NDA crossing the 270-seat majority mark and securing more than 290 seats, does not dash the grand old party's hopes, as it appears to be doing everything possible to seize upon the opportunity. The Congress-led opposition bloc I.N.D.I.A. won 232 seats. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on the other hand, expressed gratitude to the people for their "historic" term and stated that they have placed complete trust in the BJP. The National Democratic Alliance, and I.N.D.I.A bloc has called for meetings on Wednesday with their respective allies. The winning party in Andhra Pradesh, TDP, and the BJP's "impo...

Lok Sabha election results: Why is it a win-win for BJP, Congress and their allies | India News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: Those active in stock market understand how failure to meet expectations can be disastrous despite good results. We got a glimpse of that today also as Sensex tanked over 4,000 points on failed expectations and investors lost lakhs of crores. Well, that perhaps explains the political mood after the 2024 Lok Sabha election results sprang some surprises. The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance has been voted back for a historic third term.But the overriding feeling in the ruling camp is of defeat. On the other hand, the INDIA bloc is way behind the half-way mark of 272 and yet the feeling in the opposition camp is of victory. Why are BJP supporters subdued despite NDA's third consecutive win?Well, this feeling of despondency has a lot to do with BJP's stupendous performance in...

Modi set for third term with help of allies, strong INDIA performance mars his moment in history

New Delhi: Marking a dramatic shift in the country’s politics, the BJP has lost its majority in the Lok Sabha, with the Opposition’s INDIA bloc putting up a formidable show and forcing Narendra Modi to seek the help of coalition partners TDP and JD(U) to secure a third straight term in office.The people’s mandate dealt a shock to the BJP, which, under Modi’s leadership, had set an ambitious target of winning 400 seats in the 543-member Lok Sabha by repeating its domination of the heartland states, while also expanding footprint in the country’s eastern and southern coast. But, that was not to be on Tuesday. In a near repeat of 2004, nearly all the exit polls failed to predict the reverses that were headed the BJP’s way, and the surge in the Opposition’s numbers. While final results are ...

INDIA bloc pulling Modi-led BJP below halfway mark, setting country on course for coalition govt

New Delhi: It was an experiment that was set in motion last June, in a hot and humid Patna, with Bihar Chief Minister and Janata Dal (United) supremo Nitish Kumar playing the gracious host.Leaders of 17 opposition parties had huddled at the residence of Kumar, initiating the process of forming the pre-poll Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA), essentially a rebranded United Progressive Alliance (UPA) that had practically ceased to exist after the decimation of the Congress in the 2014 general elections. The objective, as spelt out in the press conference after the inaugural meeting, was to come together in “national interest”, and defeat the Bharatiya Janata Party by sharing seats to prevent the split of opposition’s vote banks. The summit had ended with the promise ...

Youth voted more for INDIA bloc than older people, farmers preferred NDA — Axis My India exit poll

New Delhi: The National Democratic Alliance’s (NDA) vote share increases with age group, whereas the opposition INDIA bloc’s vote share surges as the voter gets younger. The NDA is more popular among the highly educated. Further, the INDIA bloc has closed the gap in popularity with the NDA among the unemployed and students, but the latter still commands higher support in these two categories.These are some of the findings of the Axis My India exit poll survey released Sunday, which has predicted a sweep for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), with the NDA possibly touching the 400-seat mark. Axis My India has predicted a vote share of 47 percent for the NDA and 39 percent for the INDIA bloc. The opposition bloc also includes the Trinamool Congress and J&K PDP, which were not part of t...

Before returning to jail, Kejriwal says ‘exit polls fake’, urges INDIA bloc to stay alert on 4 June

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal claimed Sunday that the Lok Sabha election exit polls predicting a major victory for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) were designed to prevent Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and BJP functionaries from turning against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, ahead of the verdict on 4 June.He said that it was being suggested that the EVMs were tampered with, and therefore, the parties of the INDIA bloc needed to be particularly alert on getting the numbers matched with VVPAT slips. “There is no point crying hoarse later. It has to be done on counting day, so that EVM tampering can be prevented or exposed,” Kejriwal added. Kejriwal made the remarks, while addressing Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders and workers at the party he...

Bihar | Tejashwi leads the charge

"Our approach is one of santushtikaran (satisfaction), theirs (the Congress-led opposition) is tushtikaran (appeasement)...” In a 30-minute address replete with rhetoric and promises of a better tomorrow, at Munger on April 26, Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not pull his punches. From Bihar’s “dark ages” under Lalu Prasad and his Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) to the Congress’s “ominous gaze” on the common man’s property (via the much hyped ‘inheritance tax’), the BJP’s campaigner-in-chief whipped up enough bogeys to make a strong pitch for the NDA.
