BJP’s 370 Seat Target Rooted in National Unity
In a recent interview, Prime Minister Narendra Modi disclosed the rationale behind the BJP’s target of 370 seats in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. The Prime Minister explained that the number symbolizes the abrogation of Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir, a move that strengthened national unity.
The Significance of 370
According to Prime Minister Modi, the idea for the 370-seat target came from a creative individual from Kashmir. The number serves as a reminder of the country’s unity and the significance of the Article 370 abrogation.
NDA’s 400-Seat Ambition
The BJP’s target is part of a larger goal for the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) coalition, which aims to win over 400 seats in the upcoming elections. This would mark a historic third consecutive single-party majority for the BJP and secure a third term for Prime Minister Modi.
Analysis at the Booth Level
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar emphasized that the BJP’s target is not a random number. The party has conducted detailed analysis at the booth level and is confident in its ability to achieve its goals.
Seven-Phase Elections
The seven-phase Lok Sabha elections began on April 19, with five phases completed. The remaining two phases will take place on May 25 and June 1, respectively. The counting of votes is scheduled for June 4. The BJP and its NDA partners are determined to emerge victorious, with the target of over 400 seats serving as a testament to their ambition to continue shaping the nation’s future.
