The party will now need to rely on the backing of its allies to form a government, as it had hoped to gain between 350 and 400 seats.The BJP fell 32 seats short of the 272 majority mark after votes polled in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections were counted. For the first time, since the Bharatiya Janata Party swept to power in 2014, it did not secure a majority on its own.Conversely, the INDIA bloc outperformed expectations. The alliance of opposition parties gained more than 230 seats, defying exit polls that predicted their defeat.Now, all eyes are on Nitish Kumar as JD-U has 12 seats and Telugu Desam Party won 16 seats in Bihar and Andhra Pradesh, respectively. Meanwhile, all the alliance parties have reached Delhi for a meeting to decide on the government.
