Congratulations to Indian who made strong opposition for strong democracy, n to put way to protect constitution of India

[@ChandranPrema123]

Wakf board 🛹 will go

[@daredevil30000]

Yes. Modi will remain in a tight spot for the next 5 years.

[@Imanc]

Great result for Democracy!!!

[@wesleyclayton1168]

What's the big deal Congress now stands at 99 against 240 of the BJP

[@samibichumani1176]

In 2019 Enire Parlimentary meeting had 309 BJP. Now 60 faces are no part of Parliament meeting like Smriti Irani. INC faces are doubled in that meeting and people like Mau Moitra, Rahul Gandhi are Back. They will speak and shout. The one sided Remote control of BJP has gone. Matters when there is parliamentary meeting (Lok sabha) and passing bills

[@ash5533]

He hasn’t won a third term..he’s forming a coalition government so please stop misinforming people

[@tivo3720]

Now EVM is not hacked ??! Huh !!! Where is that South vs North people.

[@bernardgibbons1037]

He did not get majority and its remote control administration done by other parties what a fate god modi became go modi

[@tajamalhassan7322]

Rahul Gandhi future pm 2029

[@dr.pallab4205]

Pappu on 2090 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@ts0128]

Joke

[@daredevil30000]

Yes. Rahul will become PM in future. Age is also on his side.

[@ayushapoorva]

Gotta keep everyone onboard they can't pass laws unanimously anymore, Indian democracy often gets bored with a leader by 2nd term but modi was popular enough to get a third one so still a win for his coalition.

[@omerosdaskalos7708]

Though BJP /NDA will form the new government, the fact is that Narendra Modi is no longer fit to lead it. He is clearly suffering from serious mental /psychological issues and needs to be admitted full-time to a psychiatric facility for proper long term treatment.

[@Alpressure]

Replace Modi with Rahul Gandhi and your essay will make complete sense.

[@pinkitalukdar4701]

Actually anti modi people are suffering from mental trauma.. How could 30 partys couldn't gain the seats as many as modi... 😂😂 frustrated people

[@narinedatseenarine9896]

😀😀😀😀😀

[@MilenaBlazanovic-oq2iy]

Modi still wins! He is going to lead the country for years to come, for the third time! Muslims really work hard to make Modi's victory small

[@PrashantKumarPrashant708]

Looks like you live under a rock . I am from UP and a hindu and voted for INDIA alliance since Modi was unable to control unemployment, inflation, paper leaks, crime against women, etc and most importantly he started to consider himself as God . We just wanted to remind him that he is a human, after all.

[@PrashantKumarPrashant708]

I am hindu and from UP and voted for INDIA

[@samibichumani1176]

There is a difference. In Parliament nearly 60 faces of BJP are gone like Smriti Irani. She won’t be part of it. And INC members are doubled than 2019. So in Lok Sabha Meetings. There is no one sided remote control of BJP. They have to listen everyone before deciding on anything

[@nishantnimish7825]

I am from jharkhand I voted from PM Modi

[@daredevil30000]

BJP lost Ayodhya where Ram Temple was constructed. 85% of the population in Ayodhya is of Hindus. Do you seriously think Muslims have brought down Modi? 😒

[@ratulbiswas1812]

Great result for BBC! UK should remember that the game has just begun. Stay out of India

[@factsonly2677]

😂

[@vinishbnair]

No surprise from Ayodhya. He turned the place into a Hindu dominated one. Following up to the temple inauguration serving meat in hotels were banned . People were forced to chant Jai sree ram . Basic rights of individuals were curtailed .

[@meerak90]

Lies

[@PRIYANSHUKumar-hy2zm]

Bjp lost in Ayodhya because for widening roads they destroyed homes on sides of roads . Otherwise Ayodhya is 80 Percent Hindu majority

[@guileniam]

Lies lol

[@anandhu4ever]

​@@PRIYANSHUKumar-hy2zmIs it so?

[@PRIYANSHUKumar-hy2zm]

@@anandhu4ever A guy from Ayodhya told me

[@fearlesssoul1040]

The people who have been engaged in the celebration of modi for his getting selection will be getting continuous support from Hindu Modi 🎉

[@Balharbor28]

The election results is the greatest success for the bjp. It provides some control on pm modi and balance that is needed.

One whose father u killed

[@manishgurav2369]

Modi’s ’Sabka Saath Sabka Vikaas’ is openly challenged As per exit poll surveys -96% Muslims voted against BJP -More than 70% Dalits also voted against BJP Ironically More than 50% beneficiaries of Modi Govt’s Schemes are Minorities & Dalits India continues to be the country, voting based on the Religion & Caste Where development & welfare means have very limited value So where does it take us ?

[@TheRhinodon]

You are spouting so much Bullshit. Why shud muslims vote for Modi when he unnecessarily appends phrases like - JIhad in his speeches ? All his speeches leading upto voting were communal in nature. What proof u have that the voting was based on Religion and Caste? And what proof u have that BJP and Modi do not engage in caste based politics? U already took urself to StupidLand in your rant.

[@PrashantKumarPrashant708]

Ironically PM had nothing to showcase for in his speeches . All he did was give hate speeches, divide hindu muslim, lied openly in front of whole country and support rape convicts and accused. He was also unable to control Unemplyment, paper leaks, inflation, crime against women, petrol prices, dollar exchange rates, etc. And most importantly he started considering himself God, so we gave him a tight slap that he is a human after all. And before you assume that I am muslim let me tell you I am a Hindu and from UP . And one advice to andhbhakts like you , modi did not do any favour by giving 5kg ration, toilet, etc to public . He was elected to deliver to public basic facilities from taxes paid by us .

[@anandkanhere5193]

Reduced mandate ? He is PM 3rd time in row with same mandate of leading the country. BBC ???

[@Unsgusa2024]

Actually 1478 million Indian citizens fought the BJP juggernaut 24×7×365 to safeguard the 'Constitution of India' and ensure a massive defeat to BJP in the federal parliament elections.🎉

[@praveenjairahul]

This clearly shows how predominant media have arisen as pimps.

[@lokeshgsadhmaya5499]

Well done congress Keep going on

[@alexstephen5892]

His party lost for large votes in Ayodhya shame you Hindu radical man

[@vasudiwannarayanan7328]

BJP by itself won more seats than all the oppositions parties combined..With pre election coalitions partners' support, BJP has a confortable majority to rule for the next 5 years.

[@daredevil30000]

Modi used IT department to freeze the bank accounts of the main opposition party (Congress). Modi used ED to put Arvind Kejriwal and Hemant Soren in jail. So, these elections weren’t free & fair. Had these elections been free & fair, I am sure the opposition would have won another 20 seats or so.

[@saroshvarghese362]

Now Congress will be a real headache for the bjp goons 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍

[@vasudiwannarayanan7328]

CONGRESS LOST ..Despite offering one lakh rupees to women & other freebies..Got less than 100 seats ..in a 543 seat parliament

[@Snehakk-ow4it]

Ha ha Anti Hindu Rahul feroz is not PM even this time , so happy i am . Victory for Hindus

[@alexstephen5892]

He is the most blunder man of INDIA now

[@SidhuSahibSidhuSahib]

Ruhal gadhi future pm india❤❤

[@manishgurav2369]

The BJP government that made the whole of Ayodhya shine! New airport, new railway station! After 500 years, the Ram temple was built, A whole temple economy was created! After all this the party had to face defeat in the Ayodhya seat. I have seen for myself that no party can develop Ayodhya as much as the BJP has done.People of Ayodhya were not loyal to Maa Sita even , how can we expect any loyalty from them for BJP in Kaliyug . Shameless , thankless people , one mandir boosted the economy of the city , several development projects , international recognition to the city which was lying ignored and this is what they gave in return to BJP and Modi

[@LadiesMan96]

Check the ground reality before commenting. A mandir may boost the economy but it won't bring back hundreds of homes and shops that were demolished to build this temple. The people were given less to no compensation by the government.

[@PrashantKumarPrashant708]

How much do they pay in BJP IT cell ?

[@calvinang1]

Well, that was money well spent on the hindu temple
