NDA’s failure to achieve its ‘400-paar’ mark, coupled with the INDIA alliance crossing the 200-mark, indicates a shift in grassroots sentiments, particularly evident in Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan. Despite contesting more seats this time, the BJP experienced a decline in vote share, contrasting with the Congress, which saw an increase compared to the 2019 Lok Sabha polls. Despite securing 36.53 percent of the total votes polled, the BJP fell short of the magic figure of 272, marking a slight decrease of about 0.8 percent.
