<ul><li>Narendra Modi arrived at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)'s headquarters in Delhi to deliver his first speech after the vote count has predicted a historic election victory for the saffron party. </li></ul> To the popular, hard-working President, brother Amit Shah... To the BJP’s all esteemed colleagues and my brothers and sisters… Today, even the rain God has decided to join us in this celebration of victory. The people’s mandate for the 2019 Lok Sabha, we went to the people for a mandate for a new India. Today we can see that crores of India’s citizens have filled the jholi (satchel) of the fakir (a saint who has taken a vow of poverty). I bow my head before India’s 130 crore citizens. In the democratic world, just this electoral number of 2019 Lok Sabha elections — this victory — is in itself a big incident in the history of democracy. This is the biggest incident in the entire world. There have been so many elections since the country’s independence but since then, after so many elections, the highest voter turnout was in this election, and that too, amid temperatures of 40-45 degrees celsius. This in itself is Indian citizen’s awareness, India’s commitment to democracy, the entire world has to register, the entire world has to register and recognise India’s democratic prowess. On this occasion, in the celebration of democracy, to those people who have sacrificed for the sake of democracy, those who were injured, I offer my condolences. In the history of democracy, they have set an example that will inspire coming generations to lay down their lives for the sake. To the Election Commission, to the security forces, to those people who handled this celebration of democracy in the best way such that it increased everyone’s belief in democracy, for offering the arrangement to successfully conclude the process of elections, I want to offer my heartfelt congratulations. Friends, when the battle of Mahabharata ended, Lord Krishna was asked, “Who’s side were you on?” At that time, in the time of Mahabharata, the answer that Lord Krishna had give, today in the twenty first century, in the 2019 elections, the people of India, the 130 crore citizens, have given the same answer as Lord Krishna. Lord Krishna had said that he was not fighting for any side. ‘I was only on the side of Hastinapur,” he had said. The citizens of the country have stood on the side of India, voted for India. Therefore, this feeling of the Indian people is the guarantee of India’s bright future. I have been saying from the first day of this election, no party is fighting this election, no candidate is fighting, no leader is fighting this. This election is being fought by the people of this country. Those who had their eyes and ears closed found it difficult to understand my words. But today, the people have expressed my feelings. Therefore, if there is a winner today, it is India. If there is a winner today, it is democracy. If there is a winner today, it is the people. Therefore, we the workers of the BJP, our friends in the NDA, we dedicate this victory in the feet of the people. I heartily congratulate all the winners of this <keyword id="43815" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Lok-Sabha-election">Lok Sabha election</keyword>. And all the winners -- whichever party you are from, from whichever background -- for the bright future, with commitment, I believe they will walk shoulder to shoulder towards a bright future, will serve the country, with that belief I heartily congratulate them. There were four assembly elections too-- Odisha, Sikkim, Andhra Pradesh, and Arunachal Pradesh. I also want to congratulate those who have been elected to those assemblies, the government that has been selected by the people of those states, I want to reassure them too, that the BJP is committed to India’s constitution and to federalism. And therefore, these things, to the winners, I want to assure them that the central government will walk shoulder to shoulder with them in their journey towards development. Just like what our President said, the crores of BJP’s workers, their efforts, their purpose, I feel so proud that the party that I am part of has such generous people. Crores and crores of workers have only one feeling, “Bharat Mata ki jai”. And nothing else. Those workers, every partner of the BJP family deserves crores and crores of compliments for selflessly held the flag of democracy high, to fulfil the aspirations of the country’s common people, with all your heart and soul, in a democratic way, took part in this entire democratic process, to enhance its pomp and pageantry, served a glorious role. BJP has a speciality. And that is, even when we were split into two, but we never changed our path, didn’t allow our values to disappear. We didn’t stop, didn’t tired, didn’t bow down even when we were split into two. And today, we have come back for the second time. In this journey from being split into two to this return for a second time, there have been many ups and downs. We didn’t lose our hope when we were two, and now, we have come back twice but we haven’t left our politeness, we haven’t left our wisdom, we haven’t left our values, and we haven’t left our culture. Friends, I as myself busy and because of that I couldn’t focus on the election results. And because of that, I don’t even know fully, what happened and where. But what the President said in detail, I, after tonight, will take time and see what happened through the day. But what the President said, this in itself will force India’s political pundits to leave their entire twentieth century theories. This is the 21st century and this is new India. Our victory in today’s election is followed by chants of ‘Modi, Modi, Modi’. This is not a vicotry for Modi. But, today’s victory is not a victory for Modi. This is a victory for the aspirations of every citizen of this country craving for honesty. This is victory of the young man who is walking with the dreams for the 21st century. This is a victory for that mother who, with all her self-respect and dignity, is desperate for a toilet. This is a victory for that sick man, who for 4-5 years could afford a treatment but today, he got his treatment and this is his blessing. This victory is for those farmers in the country who sweat it out, who starve their stomach to feed the country and take strange troubles. This is a victory for the 40 crore unorganised labourers who, for the first time… The people from the left may offered many ideas but this is the first government, which does not have the label of the left but it provided pension for 40 crore people, the unorganised labourers, and gave them a respectable life. This is their victory. Those who were homeless for long but today have pucca homes, it is their victory. It is a victory for them, who will get pucca homes by 2022. Brothers and sisters, this is a victory for the middle class families who kept following the law and the rules, who kept paying taxes for the welfare of the country but they never got respect or the belief that the tax that they are paying whether it does benefit the country. In the last five years, they experienced that what they pay is reaching the right place. The satisfaction that the middle class families feel has been seen in the results of this election. The strength of honesty has got an approval this election and has brought about a change in India. Brothers and sisters, in our country the election has happened like this. Otherwise you would have seen that for 30 continuous years in the country, especially-- although the drama has been going on for years--- it had become a fashion to do anything and wear a tag, which had become equal to taking a holy dip in the Ganges. The name of that fake tag was ‘secularism’ and there used to be chants “seculars come together”. You would have seen from 2014-19, that entire section has stopped talking. In this election, not even one political party has the guts to wear the mask of secularism to fool the country. They have been unmasked. Secondly, there has been no election in this country where the central focus hasn’t been inflation. This election has been such where not even one political party has accused us of inflation. All of India’s earlier elections where marred with the topic of corruption. Parties were forced to answer about corruption. This was the first election were any political party couldn’t accuse 5 years of administration with corruption charges. These things have been constant in India’s democracy and they were missing in India’s elections this time, and that’s why political pundits couldn’t understand on what scale should these things be measured. Brothers and sisters, this election has laid down the foundation for the 21st century’s social, public and political life. Those who want a brighter future for the country have built a new narrative with this election for unity of the nation, The weaker section of the society has forced the country to reconsider their old beliefs. Now, there are only two caste living in the country and the country is going to be focused on these two castes. In the 21th century, there is a caste in india, the poor, and other castes in the country who have some contribution to free them of poverty. There are the ones who want to come out of poverty and the one who wants to bring people out of poverty. We have to empower these two. We have to walk with this dream. Friends, this election is important because we have won with a massive mandate which has stunned the world for next 5 years. Take a moment, this is the time when India will celebrate Mahatma Gandhi’s 150th birth anniversary, when in 2022 India will celebrate 75 years of independence. This duration is like the time between 1942-1947, when the whole of India had one common goal in mind – freedom. Whatever people did – from leaving schools to going to jail, was all for freedom – it was a people’s revolution that brought freedom to the country . This duration of 2019-2024 will be to remember the martyrs of India’s freedom movement. During that time, the population was also not as much as today – 130 crore people and if we resolve then we can free the country of all problems. We have to take the country towards prosperity and be a developed country. We have to fulfil the basic needs of the poor in the country. We have to emulate the spirit of freedom during 1942-1947 for a prosperous India, then we can take the country to new heights. And that’s why friends, we have to accept this election results with humility. A government is formed with people’s mandate but keeping in mind the spirit of India’s democracy, we have to remember that the government works with inclusion. And that’s why who said what during the campaigns is in the thing in the past for me now. We have to look forward and move forward along with everyone – even the opposition, for the benefit of the country. And that’s why even after with this massive mandate we have to move forward with humility within the limits of the democracy. Constitution is supreme for us and we will follow every word of it to move forward. And every member of the BJP and every citizen of India, will have the same enthusiasm I’m sure. Brothers and sisters, this country has given us a lot. Today, in front of the country, I want to say something – I want to make Indians believe that you have filled the bowl of this beggar. My beloved citizens of India, you have filled the bowl of this beggar – with expectations, hopes and dreams. I understand the gravity of this but I will tell the country that in 2014 you didn’t know me much yet you trusted me. In 2019, after knowing me well you have given me more strength. I understand the feelings behind this decision very well. As Amit Shah said, after many years a selected government has come back to power more strength. This means that Indians have so much trust in us and as the trust increases, so does the responsibility. And that’s why I want to tell you – with the duty that you have given me, with the support all our friends in NDA have given us and the hard work they have put in – I will not do anything with bad intentions. I might make mistakes but none of them would be with a bad intention. Secondly, you have given me such a big responsibility, I want to reiterate that I won’t do anything just for myself. Thirdly, I want to say one thing publicly, every second of my time and every cell of my body is dedicated solely to the citizens of this country. Whenever you assess me, consider these three parameters. If I fall short of any expectations, then criticise me.but the things I say publicly, I will try to live up to those expectations. During this election, we got to know the work and effort of every common worker of the party. From the common worker to the party president, I welcome the hard work and efforts of everyone and thank them. Thank you.

Times Now VMR and C-Voter exit polls predicted that Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will win one seat each — North Goa and South Goa — while India Today My Axis expects a repeat of the 2014 Lok Sabha Election with a landslide victory for the BJP in both constituencies. <ul><li>The election results in Goa will be a close call between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Congress.</li><li>The vote share predictions across exit polls vary between the parties winning one constituency each or a landslide victory for the BJP.</li><li>Congress has hit back saying that exit polls don’t account for the ‘silent voter’ and should be banned altogether.</li><li>BJP claims that the exit polls are a sign of voter confidence in India’s incumbent Prime Minister, Narendra Modi.</li></ul>Goa could have been anybody’s game as <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/goa-exit-poll-2019-of-lok-sabha-elections/articleshow/69399333.cms">every exit poll has a different opinion</a> on how the vote share is going to swing during the Lok Sabha Election for the state. Trajana D’Mello, the Goa Congress spokesperson, asserted that exit polls don’t account for ‘silent voters’ in response to the exit polls that predicted a win for the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA).

 Digging into BJP’s comeback In North Goa, the competition is between BJP’s incumbent Pad Yasso Naik versus Congress’ Girish Chodankar and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)’s Pradeep Padgaonkar. In South Goa, BJP’s Narendra Keshav Sawaikar is looking for second terms while fielding off Francisco Sardinha from Congress and Elvis Gomes from AAP. The biggest threat to BJP’s comeback is the state’s mining issue. The Indian Supreme Court has had to shut down many mines over the past five years owing to the environmental endangerment. Jobs and production have come to a stand still as the mining industry and the Indian government have been locked in a stalemate on the issue. <a href="https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/news/elections/in-goa-the-mining-ban-weighs-heavily-on-elections/article26888384.ece">Goan mining lobbies</a> aren’t happy and suspect that the BJP isn’t reinstating mining rights because it wants to sell the resources to larger companies like Jindal or Adani; harshly affecting the income of around 300,000 people in the state. The North Goa Congress candidate, Girish Chodankar, is promising to bring about sustainable mining so that livelihoods aren’t affected by any bans on mining. Narendra Sawaikar, the incumbent BJP candidate from South Goa, has an opposing opinion that the people in the mining belts will stand by the party. The recent drop in revenue — <a href="https://www.business-standard.com/article/pti-stories/tourism-slump-in-goa-a-key-issue-in-ls-polls-stakeholders-119040800633_1.html">as much as</a> 40% — from the tourism industry doesn’t play in BJP’s favour either. Both industries are the primary sources of employment in the state.

Goa Lok Sabha Election Result 2019: BJP winning Lok Sabha seats but losing Parrikar's assembly seat in Panaji

BJP winner candidate list for Lok Sabha Elections 2019

BJP's candidate from Chandigarh, Kiran Kher is predicted to win the lone seat in the city as per the exit polls. India today Axis has predicted BJP's win. More than 2 polls predicted BJP's clear win while others are showing a close contest. The Union territory of Chandigarh has only one Lok Sabha constituency. The parliamentary seat is now being held by Kirron Kher, the BJP candidate who won the 2014 general elections from here. In these elections, Kirron Kher defeated Pawan Kumar Bansal of Congress with about a difference of 70,000 votes. The third place was claimed by AAP’s Gul Panag. The union territory went for polling during the last phase of elections in 2019 on April 19 and now awaits the results eagerly. Chandigarh presents a tough contesting scenario for the major political parties. The triangular contest in Chandigarh now sees the BJP and Congress candidates re-nominated following the 2014 elections. Hence the main contenders in the parliamentary elections 2019 are Kirron Kher (BJP), Pawan Kumar Bansal (Congress) and Harmohan Dhawan (AAP). The scene is a bit different as AAP has replaced Gul Panag with Harmohan Dhawan. Notably, he was a senior BJP leader who left the party and joined the AAP in November 2018. There is a strong possibility that Dhawan could cut a sizeable percentage of the Hindu votes as he had earlier supported Kirron Kher during the earlier Lok Sabha elections in the union territory of Chandigarh.

All the exit polls have predicted a comfortable win for the BJP. According to News18 exit poll, BJP is going to win 4-5 seats in Uttarakhand while Indian National Congress may not even bag single seat. On the other hand, Today’s Chanakya has predicted full majority for BJP in Uttarakhand with Congress winning zero seats. Uttarakhand state has five Lok Sabha seats in total to give the parliament. As per the Election Commission’s announcement, polling for all these five seats during the Lok Sabha elections 2019 was held in a single phase on April 11, when the country went for the first round of polling. At present, the BJP holds all the five seats in the state having faced a momentous victory in 2014 general elections for the Lok Sabha. The three major parties facing the elections from the state are BJP, Congress and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP). Across the five constituencies of the state, 52 candidates are lined up to test their lucks this time.

Uttarakhand Lok Sabha Election Result 2019: BJP wins in all five seats

Rajasthan Lok Sabha Election Result 2019: BJP wins all

Bihar might be on the cusp of a major generational shift in politics as it braced for Tuesday's counting of votes for the assembly election, with most pollsters predicting a landslide for the five-party Grand Alliance led by the young RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav. Counting will be taken up at 55 centres across 38 districts where the outcome will decide the fate of the Nitish Kumar government that has helmed the state for a decade and half. Most exit polls have predicted a rout for the ruling JD(U)-BJP combine and a resounding victory for the Grand Alliance (Mahagathbandhan) led by RJD's 31-year-old chief ministerial candidate Tejashwi Yadav, who has thrown down the gauntlet at redoubtable Nitish Kumar, the battle-scarred veteran more than twice his age. The Election Commission is making sure that the winds of potential change cause no disruption in the counting process. According to Chief Electoral Officer H R Srinavasa, central armed police forces have been deployed at the strong rooms, where the EVMs have been stored since the completion of voting, and the halls where these will be unsealed Tuesday morning after counting of postal ballots gets over. The state has 243 assembly constituencies and the most keenly watched will obviously be Raghopur in Vaishali district from where Tejashwi Yadav is seeking re-election. Kumar is a member of the legislative council and has not contested the assembly election. Raghopur has been in the past represented by his parents Lalu Prasad and Rabri Devi both former chief ministers. Tejashwi's elder brother Tej Pratap Yadav is contesting from Hasanpur in Samastipur district. In addition, Tuesday's counting will also decide the political fate of nearly a score of ministers. Prominent among them are Nand Kishore Yadav (Patna Sahib), Pramod Kumar (Motihari), Rana Randhir (Madhuban), Suresh Sharma (Muzaffarpur), Shrawan Kumar (Nalanda), Jai Kumar Singh (Dinara) and Krishnanandan Prasad Verma (Jehanabad). With much of the NDA's election narrative focusing on RJD's association with "jungle raj", an allusion to the alleged collapsed law and order during the 15 years when Lalu-Rabri ruled the state in succession, the fate of "bahubalis", leaders known for strong arm tactics, will also be keenly watched. Two of the most notorious criminal-turned-politicians- Anant Singh (Mokama) and Reetlal Yadav (Danapur)- are contesting on RJD tickets. A win for the RJD-led coalition will bring a redemption of sorts for Tejashwi Yadav whose leadership abilities were called into question after his party failed to win a single seat in the Lok Sabha elections last year. The NDA had won 39 of the 40 seats and one had gone to the Congress, an RJD ally. It may also revive the fortunes of the three Left parties--The CPI, CPI-M and CPI-ML--which were consigned to near oblivion over the past two decades. The five-party 'Mahagathbandhan' also comprises these three Left parties, which were a force to reckon with in the past. Election officials and district administrations face the daunting task of restraining supporters of political parties from crowding the counting centres amid the COVID-19 outbreak. Prohibitory orders will be be place outside the counting centres to prevent people from gathering in large numbers, officials said. According to Srinivasa, while 19 companies of the central armed police forces will be deployed at strong rooms and the halls where counting will take place, another 59 have been entrusted with maintaining law and order. Each company comprises roughly 100 personnel. Additional Director General of Police (Headquarters) Jitendra Kumar said Bihar Military Police and local police will also chip in while senior officials will keep a watch through display screens connected to CCTV cameras installed at the counting centres.

Bihar readies for D-day as polls forecast JDU-BJP win

·In TN, the Congress and DMK combine is expected to win more than 25 seats, according to four out of five polls ·In Andhra, four exit polls predict that YSR-C will win over 15 seats, whereas TDP will be lucky to get ten. ·In Kerala, Congress and UDF are expected to win 15 seats, according to most polls. ·Almost all exit polls suggest that BJP will over 20 seats in Karnataka. <keyword id="58687" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Bharatiya-Janata-Party">Bharatiya Janata Party</keyword> (BJP) may be headed for a big win in the Northern states, but in four out five Southern states, it seems to have made fatal mistakes. BJP’s partner limps in Tamil Nadu As per exit polls, in Tamil Nadu, BJP bet on the wrong horse. Their coalition partner, AIADMK (All India <keyword id="294965" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Dravida-Munnetra-Kazhagam">Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam</keyword>) is expected to win fewer than 10 seats. Only News 18-IPSOS poll believes they will win 14 seats, while India Today-Axis poll believes they will win anywhere between zero to four! Congress’ partner DMK (Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam) on the other hand, has been a clear favourite. Four out of five polls say that they will win more than 25 seats, while two of them will say that they will win more than 30 seats. Naidu’s fury Both Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and BJP could have gained from an alliance, a second time around. But that was not to be. TDP head Chandrababu Naidu broke away from National Democratic Alliance (NDA) as his state was not given special status. BJP also failed to forge another alliance in the state. Most polls believe that YSR Congress (YSR-C), headed by Jagan Reddy could be a net gainer as electorate is exasperated with BJP and TDP alike. Four exit polls predict that YSR-C will win over 15 seats, whereas TDP will be lucky to get 10. Only Today’s Chanakya believes that TDP will get 17 seats. Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), which is headed by K Chandrasekhara Rao, known as KCR, is expected to come back with a thumping majority. Rao will hold most seats in hand and will be more valuable for the formation of a federal front, rather than <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/elections/lok-sabha/india/chandrababu-naidu-meets-rahul-gandhi-to-meet-mayawati-akhilesh-in-up/articleshow/69384210.cms">Naidu who has been meeting</a> every non-BJP leader in New Delhi. Kerala’s Temple Run-ins In Kerala too, BJP which had no allies in place, is expected to report a dismal performance, and would be lucky to retain the single seat they won last year. This time around, experts said that there is a <keyword id="6354642" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Modi">Modi</keyword> wave which vanished after allowing women to enter <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/2-women-entered-a-hindu-in-india-breaking-a-decades-long-ban-2019-1?IR=T">Sabarimala temple</a>. BJP’s arch rival Congress which struck a deal with United Democratic Front (UDF) is expected to win 15 seats, according to most polls. The only good news for BJP comes from Karnataka. Almost all the exit polls suggest that BJP will over 20 seats in the current elections, leaving the Congress and Janata Dal-Secular combine with less than half of it.

Arjun Meghwal has secured nearly 60% of the votes, handily beating his <keyword id="1575" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Congress">Congress</keyword> rival Madan Gopal Meghwal, his cousin, who got 36% of the votes. Meghwal <a href="https://www.financialexpress.com/elections/bikaner-election-result-live-updates-arjun-ram-meghwal-bjp-rajasthan-lok-sabha-2019-news-updates/1573159/">won </a>the constituency in the 2014 and 2009 <keyword id="6355187" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="lok-sabha">Lok Sabha</keyword> elections and was hoping that anti-incumbency didn’t come in the way of a similar victory this time around. Prior to that, Bollywood actor Dharmendra had won the seat in 2004. In his role as MoS of Finance, Meghwal was tasked with <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/government-keeping-an-eye-on-gst-implementation-regularly-arjun-ram-meghwal/articleshow/60337154.cms">spearheading the rollout</a> of the Modi administration’s Goods and Services Tax in mid-2017 and helping resolve its various implementation problems. Meghwal is remembered for making a number of quotable comments about the new tax regime, the most famous of which is likening it to a <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/economy/policy/gst-like-new-daughter-in-law-needs-time-to-adjust-arjun-ram-meghwal/articleshow/60265348.cms">“daughter-in-law”</a>, meaning that it would require an adjustment period. More than his comments however, there were three things complicating Meghwal’s re-election bid. Firstly, a number of local issues, such as <a href="https://www.firstpost.com/india/drought-in-rajasthan-over-rs-7000-crore-spent-on-projects-but-not-much-water-has-flown-through-western-region-6331911.html">a shortage of water for agriculture</a> would have contributed to anti-incumbency sentiments. Secondly, t<a href="https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/rebel-thickens-the-plot-in-bikaner/article27016159.ece">he departure of veteran Rajput leader Devi Singh Bhati</a> from the BJP would have no doubt hurt Meghwal’s prospects, not only because Bhati enjoys support in the region but because the latter refused to endorse Meghwal, pinning BJP’s loss in Assembly elections on him. Thirdly, the former IAS officer from <keyword id="6355588" type="LOCATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="rajasthan">Rajasthan</keyword> is engaged in a face off with his cousin, Madan Meghwal, the Congress candidate in the constituency who was also competing for the Dalit vote. With no community card to play, he used the popular support for the BJP and Narendra Modi that helped drive Arjun Ram Meghwal to victory.
