In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the Congress has significantly improved, rising from 52 seats in 2019 to 98. The INDIA alliance, led by Congress, has countered BJP's '400 paar' claim and challenged Prime Minister Narendra Modi's electoral stronghold. Despite another term in opposition, this result marks a significant achievement, reducing BJP to under 250 seats and NDA to 297. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge emphasized the moral victory, while analysts note the importance of sustaining the INDIA bloc for future elections. The Congress is poised to secure the Leader of the Opposition post, consolidating its leadership within the alliance.
