Prime Minister Narendra Modi's NDA alliance is desperate to win a third consecutive term in power. On the other hand, the Congress-led India Alliance has also expressed hope of a landslide victory in the elections.

The voting took place in 543 Lok Sabha seats to send one representative each to the Lower House of the Parliament. Any party or coalition needs a majority of 272 seats to form the government.
