None of the political parties reached the 272-seat majority on its own on Tuesday as the results of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections were announced. However, the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) crossed the majority mark with 292 seats.
With this, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to retain power for a third consecutive term despite the not achieving the landslide victory of crossing 400 seats that he hoped for.
On the contrary, the Congress made stunning gains with a stupendous performance in the general elections touching the 100 mark and emerging as a strong opposition in Lok Sabha.
Addressing a joint press conference at the Congress headquarters here along with party president Mallikarjun Kharge and Congress Parliamentary Party leader Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi said the INDIA bloc allies would meet on Wednesday and take a call on its future course of action.
