Congress makes waves in the 15th Lok Sabha Election

Congress keeping its word that it will form the next Government, has come very much true. At the stroke of 8 am and 11 am, Congress was leading on about 200+ seats and BJP came out without hope accepting the defeat.

All the senior leader from BJP, Left, Third and fourth front have been shocked with the lead the Congress has taken and now it race to form the Government.

The charisma of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi have worked a lot in this election. They sticked to their manifesto and worked as team and came out with astounding results. Whereas BJP, was always looking into unwanted issue, and made a way to go down in this election. Third Front which was in assumption that it will sweep the election and will ask Congress to support in the formation of Government has been washed out completely from the states like West Bengal and Kerala. Where they hold a very key position in all these years.

Mamata Banerjee with Congress has completely sweeped the West Bengal and has given hope to Congress that will form the Government. BJD has sweeped the Orissa general election and will not support any Government in Centre. Well it will be happy to be seated in the opposition of the Government formation party.

The biggest surprise which hit Congress and BJP was Rajasthan and Delhi, where BJP thought it will gain seats and all the seats in Delhi are of Congress and 50% of Rajasthan seats are of Congress. BJP has made it ways in certain states where it had allies and also had it own rule. BJP has accepted the defeat and is going to hold a meeting in order to see where they went wrong, and why the results are not to their expectations.

Andhra Pradesh has also given Congress a sigh relief where it has its own rule till now and will continue. As Congress has made it way into the assembly election also, however, there was good fight between the TDP and Congress. PRP play spoil sport which divide the vote bank of both Congress and TDP. TRS has not gain the number of seats which it had in the year 2004 and same with TDP.

Congress is well placed to form the Government on its own without any support required from Left or Third front. Congress has emerged a single largest party with its allies, TMC, SP and JMM which will help them to form the Government. However, some of the key minister of Congress have lost their seats from their respective Constituency P. Chidambaram - ShivGanga and many others.

Current standing where we have the results declared for 352/543.

Who will be Next Prime Minister?

The election’s are over. The last phase of election saw a good turnout of about 62% in overall India. The major states which is going to play a role in the phase 5 election and also in forming the Government will be Tamil Nadu with 39 seats in its Kitty.

The election commissioner might now be a relief man for all the phase of election have completed and now only counting which will start on May 16. Each and every individual has been working hard from last one month to make this election Polling go smoothly. However, we had incidence in each phase of election, at some place voting was done again. Parties workers had fight with each other, some police lathi charges, cases were booked.In last phase of election, in Orissa, TMC workers and other parties had fight and got hurt each other. BJP boy, Varun Gandhi stated that there is rigging of vote going on in his constituency.

The parties have begun searching for allies which will help them to reach the magical number of 272 in order to form the Government. The third front creator, H.D Deve Gowda, son H.D Kumaraswamy, went to meet Sonia Gandhi. What does this mean, is he joining or supporting Congress once the election are over, then what about the third front party.

BJP has thrown all its representative all over country, in order to find, negotiate, and bring the party under its flagship. Jayalalitha, ChandraBabu Naidu and Mayawati are the major person for whom BJP are looking into and working hard to get their support. BJP is also afraid where it is one of the allies JD(U) Nitish Kumar, willl fall into the kitty of Congress. It is not letting any door open for the Congress to pull out it allies and join them.

The same with Congress, it is all over the country and in search of parties to form the Government. However, Congress is in a great dilemma of how to deal with certain parties. As it is in ally with Karunanidhi and would also like Jayalalitha to join the party for the support, which is not possible. On the other hand, if they look out for Mayawati(BSP), then they already have support of SP Mulayam Singh Yadav with them. These two leader are from two different direction which will never meet. Then in Orissa, if Congress looks out TMC and it is in ally with Left. Congress is tied from all over, and we need to wait and watch how Congress is going to work out on its plan of action.

The key role who are going to play in forming the Government in Central are ChandraBabu Naidu, Mayawati and Jayalalitha. The party who is able to grab these three will emerge as the Owner of the Prestigious Chair of India.

The surveys are out and it looks like the Congress will emerge as Single largest party, however will need support from allies to reach the magical number.
