The 2024 Lok Sabha Election spans seven phases from April 19 to June 1. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), leading the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), aims for a third term with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the helm.
Special attention is directed towards southern states where the BJP seeks to bolster its presence, particularly outside of Karnataka. With 430 seats declared and 12 lists of candidates released thus far, the party’s campaign is in full swing.
Prime Minister Modi seeks re-election from Varanasi, while notable exclusions from the candidate roster include former Health Ministers Mansukh Mandviya and Harsh Vardhan. L. Murugan, a Rajya Sabha member and Minister, contends for the Nilgiris seat in Tamil Nadu, while IT Minister Rajeev Chandrashekhar challenges Shashi Tharoor in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala’s capital.
In a nod to celebrity involvement, the BJP features Suresh Gopi, Krishnakumar, and Kangana Ranaut as candidates in Thrissur, Kollam, and Mandi constituencies, respectively.
