The meeting between PM Modi and President Murmu is scheduled to take place at Rashtrapati Bhavan, where the Prime Minister will formally request the dissolution of the current Lok Sabha. This procedural step is essential for the transition to the 18th Lok Sabha, marking the end of the five-year term of the current assembly and paving the way for the newly elected members to take their seats.
The BJP, which has been in power since 2014, has once again emerged victorious, reaffirming its dominant position in Indian politics. The dissolution of the Lok Sabha is a customary practice following general elections, facilitating the formation of a new government. It is anticipated that President Murmu will accept PM Modi’s recommendation, leading to the official announcement and the subsequent swearing-in of the new government.
