Lok Sabha Election Result 2024

Lok Sabha Elections are a vital event in the Indian Legislature as they decide the prime leader of the country and other heads of various ministries. The Lok Sabha General Elections take place in every 5th year to elect the 543 Members of Parliament (MP) of various constituencies. The Lok Sabha Elections were organized by the Election Commission of India, they are responsible for organizing fair and impartial elections in the country. From authenticating the candidature to counting the votes to announcing the final results, the Election Commission is accountable for the complete process.   

Previously the Lok Sabha elections were held in the year 2019. This year 2024, the Election Commission of India announced the dates of General Elections on March 16, 2024. The voting for the general elections was held in 7 phases from April 19, 2024, to June 1, 2024.  

On June 4, 2024, the Lok Sabha General Election results were announced, and the BJP (Bhartiya Janta Party) -led NDA won the Lok Sabha Elections 2024. However, the process of vote counting was a complete roller coaster and the fight between the two major Alliances NDA (National Democratic Alliance) and INDIA (Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance) was close enough. The country is going to witness a coalition Government after a decade and some things can be analyzed from it.

Lok Sabha Elections 2024: An Overview 

The results of the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 were the biggest shocker for everyone. On June 3rd, the Exit polls came out. The predictions and results are completely upside down. On one hand, the Exit Polls have predicted 361-401 parliament seats for NDA but in reality, the number gets restricted to 294 seats only. Whereas in the Exit polls the seats predicted for the INDI Alliance were only 152-180 seats and in reality, they got 231 seats. This series of incidents has shaken the stock market. On June 3rd after the Exit poll release, the NIFTY and SENSEX reached their record highest mark and just the next day after the release of the result the SENSEX and NIFTY fell to their record lowest mark after the COVID-19 scenario. 

Talking separately about the two major political parties of India BJP and INC (Indian National Congress), the difference between the seats was very high. BJP independently won 240 seats and INC won only 99. However, the number of BJP seats was not enough to form a Government on their own. The number of seats needed to form a government was 272. Thus they have to join hands with their allies to form the Government. However, now the BJP is all set to form a Coalition Government with its allies.  

The final parliamentary seat distribution among all the allies is: 

Allies Number of Seats 
NDA 294 
INDIA 231 
Others 18 
Total 543
