The BJP criticized Gandhi's reference to the song, suggesting it challenges Indian law. Gandhi argues the BJP won't win more than 20 seats in Bengal and only a few in Tamil Nadu, Andhra, and Kerala. This prediction contrasts with his mother Sonia Gandhi's past miscalculation of 272 seats. Congress remains cautious in its response to allies, focusing on securing support for the crucial election.
