Significance All votes will be counted on June 4, with the poll results set to be announced that same day. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is aiming to secure a third successive term. Turnout in the elections has not been low by historical standards, but it is down on the level registered in the 2019 polls. Impacts The hard-line Hindu nationalist rhetoric employed by the BJP may mean that it attracts less support from Muslim voters than five years ago. Modi’s party may lose electoral ground in certain states, even those where it has traditionally performed well. A reduced majority for the NDA would dent the alliance’s confidence.
