General election 2024: Saffron party is ahead of its rivals

The dates of Parliamentary election announced have been announced by the Election Commission. This Parliamentary election will be held in seven phases which will begin on April 19 and continue till June 1. The counting will take place on June 4 from which the shape and the face of new government will emerge.

This election is going to be crucial for the making of new future of India. It is crucial due to three reasons. Firstly, the future of reshaping indian democracy which BJP proposed in the last 10 years will be determined from this election. Secondly, this election is also going to decide the fate of Vikasit Bharat mission which BJP has designed during its last two regimes. Thirdly, it is also going to decide what will be the forms of response of rising aspirations of women, Dalits, youths, peasants and various subaltern communities in India who are aspiring for their socio- political and cultural mobility.

This election is going to be fought within various parties on four central narratives. Firstly, this entire election is going to discuss the designs and initiatives of Vikasit Bharat which BJP has proposed during the election campaign. The BJP may propose this future agenda as its vision and commitment for making new India. On the other hand, political parties in opposition may try to critique this form of Vikasit Bharat.
