Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's BJP Faces Major Setback in 2024 Election

New Delhi, India - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is facing a significant setback in the 2024 national election, with a dramatic shift in the political landscape it has dominated for the past decade. While the BJP is projected to be the country's largest party in the Lok Sabha, it is on track to lose its majority and will need coalition partners to form the government. The opposition INDIA alliance, led by the Congress party, is expected to win more than 200 seats, challenging the BJP's dominance. Modi's fearmongering campaign tactics and overconfident slogans may have backfired, leading to losses in key states like Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra. The election outcome raises questions about the BJP's strategy and marks a turning point in Indian politics. As the BJP faces a more fragmented parliament and increased scrutiny, the future of coalition-based governance and democratic institutions in India hangs in the balance.
