LS polls results: Congress' Jairam Ramesh takes '1/3 sarkar' swipe at PM Modi

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh

New Delhi: Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Thursday took a swipe at Prime Minister Modi saying that despite the repeated claims of the formation of a Modi 3.0 government, the reality is that the new government is essentially a Modi 1/3 government.
"It is being claimed repeatedly that now Modi 3.0 government will be formed.

 The truth is Abki baar Modi 1/3 sarkar," he said in a post on X.

His comment follows the recent developments where the BJP fell short of the 272-seat majority mark in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections and had to take support from other parties in its coalition to form a government.

The counting of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections was held on Tuesday. According to the Election Commission of India, the BJP won 240 seats, much lower than its 2019 tally of 303. For the first time, since the Bharatiya Janata Party swept to power in 2014, it did not secure a majority on its own.(ANI)
