The BJP's failure to secure a majority in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections is attributed to significant losses in Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and West Bengal. In these crucial states, the party's seat count dropped from 103 in 2019 to just 57. The Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) capitalized on local issues and effective coalition strategies, raising their tally from 42 to 100. Key factors included SP-Congress's expanded caste coalition in UP, MVA's resilience in Maharashtra, and Mamata Banerjee's stronghold in Bengal. These setbacks hindered the BJP's bid to surpass 250 seats in the national elections.
