Nadda Reflects on BJP's 2024 Lok Sabha Disappointment, Highlights Post-Election Resurgence

  • Outgoing BJP chief JP Nadda acknowledged the 2024 Lok Sabha election results did not meet expectations, surprising both the party and the public.
  • Nadda highlighted a significant resurgence for BJP in subsequent elections, attributing it to voters rectifying 'minor mistakes' from overconfidence.
  • He cited record victories in Haryana and Maharashtra assembly polls, and the party's return to power in Delhi after 27 years.
  • The BJP also saw a thumping victory for NDA in Bihar assembly polls and won 25 out of 29 wards in recent Maharashtra civic polls, including BMC.
  • Nadda passed the baton to Nitin Nabin, who was elected unopposed as the new BJP chief, leaving a legacy of consolidated strongholds and expanded footprint.

Why It Matters: Despite 2024 Lok Sabha setbacks, BJP under Nadda achieved significant resurgence in subsequent state and civic polls.
