Lok Sabha elections 2024 refers to the general elections scheduled to take place starting 19 April in seven phases. The results of these election will give India its next government.
Lok Sabha elections or General Elections are conducted every five years in India. Held across 543 constituencies, Members of Parliament to the lower house are elected through these polls. The party with a majority in the Lok Sabha then forms the government at the Centre, so these elections eventually lead to the election of the Prime Minister and their cabinet.
The Lok Sabha, or the House of the People, is the lower house of India’s bicameral Parliament. The upper house is called the Rajya Sabha. Members of the Lok Sabha are elected by an adult universal suffrage and a first-past-the-post system to represent their respective constituencies.
The first Lok Sabha elections were held in 1951 when the Indian National Congress came to power with Jawaharlal Nehru as Prime Minister. The last such election was held in 2019, where the Bharatiya Janta Party came to power with an overwhelming majority with Narendra Modi as prime minister. The next elections are scheduled to take place in 7 phases starting 19 April 2024. The Election Commission of India is responsible for conducting these elections.
i can say this with certainty that any UC individual who knows about INC retrogressive stand on reservation will not vote for it. But congress thinks it will work in favour of it by aligning OBC towards it, which I doubt it. Because ‘threat’ spreads like wildfire. And this is a threat for UC. But It is not so much of attraction for OBC and SC, ST. We have seen how this played out in MP, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh.
I believe any individual finding it difficult to get a job or aggravated by the lack of govt job would’ve already voted for INDIA alliance. Congress foolishly snubbed UC votes. I know it first hand. UC has the largest Unemployement rate among its population. And each individual affects its whole family.
All this reservation sigufa was because of nitish and lalu parties which are nothing but caste based parties. How congress thought it would be helpful for it is beyond my understanding. It has already misfired which is apparent when Rahul uses “garib general cast” in his recent speeches. Rahul gandhi doesn’t understand indian society. He lacks political acumen as well. Since it is seen that BJP is losing its appeal in all sections of society, this foolish stand of congress is a much needed breather for the BJP.
Rahul is nothing but a prince, and he certainly has no vision and will, usually resort to appeasement to compensate for his lack of understanding of politics. Raga world understanding keep revolving around Gandhi, Nehru cliche principles. He has no understanding of his own, no free thinking etc. Those who keep harping on the name of Gandhi and Nehru don’t have faith in their ability to reason and they find those names as a shortcut to pass on their faulty thoughts and compensate for their lack of their own free thoughts.
I am saying all this being an UC myself. I want INDIA alliance to win, basically because I don’t like Modi dictatorship. But I also don’t like Pappu as well.
