After a landslide victory in the Lok Sabha elections 2019 by coming to power in over 350 seats, BJP comes to power second time in a row with full majority. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, along with the BJP national President Amit Shah met the party veterans LK Advani and Murali Manohar Joshi on Friday morning prior to the cabinet meeting.

Called on respected Advani Ji. The BJP’s successes today are possible because greats like him spent decades building the party and providing a fresh ideological narrative to the people. pic.twitter.com/liXK8cfsrI

Other heavy weight candidates like Smriti Irani and Amit Shah have also won from their respective constituencies with a high margin. Smriti Irani has emerged victorious in Amethi, the Congress bastion against Rahul Gandhi, Congress President. Modi has won in the Varanasi constituency with a margin of 4.79 lakh votes.

However, the party could not have a stronghold in the states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh where DMK, INC and YSRCP have won in full majority.

On the other hand, BJP has claimed a strong position in the states of West Bengal, Odisha, Maharashtra and Karnataka. Even in Telangana, BJP has won four seats against Telangana Rashtra Samiti out of the total 17 seats of the state.

The states like Gujarat, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan saw BJP win over 50 percent seats.
