PM Modi said that the BJP's victory win in three states - MP, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh - has guaranteed the party's win in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

“Some people are even saying that the BJP's hat-trick has guaranteed a hat-trick in 2024,” PM Modi said. 

He also lashed out at the opposition saying, “These election results are also a big lesson for Congress and its 'Ghamandiya' alliance.”

“The lesson is that the country's trust cannot be won just by a few family members coming together on the stage. The spirit of national service that should be there to win the hearts of the people of the country is not there in the Ghamandiya alliance,” he further said. 

“Development of women power is the main basis of BJP's development model. Therefore, in these elections, women, sisters and daughters have given a lot of blessings to BJP. Today I will humbly tell every sister and daughter of the country that the promises made by BJP to you will be fulfilled 100 percent and this is Modi's guarantee,” PM Modi said in his address from the BJP headquarters. 

“In this election, there were efforts to divide the country based on castes. I kept saying that for me, four castes are important - Nari Shakti, Yuva Shakti, Kisaan aur Gareeb Parivaar,” PM Modi said in his address from the BJP headquarters.

"Today, the confidence among the youth of the country is continuously increasing that only BJP understands their aspirations and works for them. The youth of the country knows that the BJP government is youth friendly and is going to create new opportunities for the youth," he further said. 

“It is the victory of honesty, transparency and good governance. It is our good fortune when we are loved by our families. Today, I have the same emotion in me. I bow to the mothers, farmers and the youngsters who gave us their support,” PM Modi said in his address at the BJP's headquarters. 

Speaking at party headquarters in New Delhi, BJP National President JP Nadda credited the assembly election victories in MP, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh to PM Narendra Modi. 

“Whenever BJP contests any election, be it a state election or a national election, PM Narendra Modi has always taken the leadership and accepted the challenge. He has always led the campaign from the front,” Nadda said. 

“The appeasement of INDI Alliance, casteism, vote bank politics and attempts to divide the country cost Modi ji's development. The country has approved the results of these elections by keeping development at the forefront,” he further said lashing out at the opposition.

What was predicted in the exit polls? Major media networks' exit polls indicated that the Congress would be able to hold onto power in Chhattisgarh and dislodge the BRS from Telangana.

The BJP, having secured victories in Gujarat and Tripura but faced setbacks in Karnataka and Himachal Pradesh last year, seeks crucial wins to bolster momentum leading up to the Lok Sabha polls.
