Celebrating the Lok Sabha election results, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi expressed gratitude to the people of Raebareli and Wayanad for electing him with a significant majority.
Congress Declares Election Outcome “Moral And Political Loss” For PM Modi
During a press conference in the national capital on Tuesday, Rahul Gandhi thanked his supporters, saying, “Thank you very much to the people of Raebareli and Wayanad for your immense support and for making me win with a huge majority. If it were possible, I would like to serve as MP for both places.”
The final count of the Lok Sabha elections showed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) securing 240 seats, falling short of expectations but still surpassing the Congress, which won 99 seats.
The Congress declared the election outcome a “moral and political loss” for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “This election result is the ‘janta ka result’ – the people’s verdict. It is a victory for democracy. We always said it was Modi versus the people. In the 18th Lok Sabha election, we humbly accept the result. The mandate has gone against Modi, signifying his political and moral loss,” said Rahul Gandhi.
On microblogging platform X, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra emphasized that the election was a battle to protect India’s democracy and constitution, addressing issues like unemployment, inflation, and economic crisis.
