Congress has won 99 seats in the recently concluded Lok Sabha elections. In this context, the working committee meeting of the Congress party and the consultation meeting with the new MPs are going to be held in Delhi today. It is said that Rahul Gandhi is likely to be chosen as the Leader of the Opposition in this meeting.
No one got a single majority in the Lok Sabha elections that took place. The BJP won only 240 seats while it needed the support of 272 MPs to form the government at the centre. In the absence of a single majority, the BJP has become the single largest party.
Thus, Telugu Desam, which is in alliance with BJP, is going to form a coalition government with the support of 52 MPs from other alliance parties including United Janata Dal. Narendra Modi will be the Prime Minister for the 3rd time tomorrow at 7.30 pm. Preparations for this are going on vigorously.
In this election, the Congress party has won more seats compared to last year 2019. In 2019, Congress won 52 seats. But this time the Congress party won 99 seats. With this, the Congress is second only to the BJP (240 MPs) in the list of parties that have won the most seats in the Lok Sabha.
In this election, the ‘All India’ alliance of opposition parties, of which the Congress party is a part, has 234 MPs. Due to this, unlike in the past 2014 and 2019, the opposition parties are going to raise their voices against the BJP in the Lok Sabha. It is in this environment that the Congress party is going to hold a meeting today to decide on the next steps.
Accordingly, a meeting of the Congress Working Committee and a consultation meeting of the newly elected Lok Sabha MPs and Rajya Sabha MPs will be held on the same day today. Accordingly, the working committee meeting of the Congress party will be held at Ashoka Nakshatra Hotel in Delhi today at 11 am. Congress president Mallikarjuna Kharge will preside over this meeting.
From Nitish + Naidu + Shinde to Paswan.. We want all this.. BJP standing on its head.
Leaders including Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi will participate in the working committee. In this meeting, the Lok Sabha election process and the next step of the party will be discussed. Also Congress could not get opposition status last time. But this time the Congress party has enough MPs to sit in the opposition ranks.
As a result, the appointment of Rahul Gandhi as the leader of the opposition on behalf of the Congress is to be discussed. Later in the afternoon, the Congress leaders will meet the press. Subsequently, at 5.30 pm, a consultation meeting of newly elected Lok Sabha MPs and Rajya Sabha MPs will be held in the central hall of Parliament. In this meeting, it is said that Rahul Gandhi is likely to be officially elected as the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha.
After that at 7 pm at Ashoka Hotel, Congress party working committee members, Congress MPs and senior leaders will be treated to a party.
