On Sunday, 19th, the last phase of voting for the 2019 General Elections in the world’s largest democracy completed. However, the role of the Election Commission did not end since the results were pending until 23rd May. Today as counting progressed the country gave a clear mandate to BJP, thus sending a strong message that the public is indeed happy with the incumbent Modi government.
Soon after exit polls, opposition leaders started with their concocted lies and EVM drama as usual, but to no avail as nor voters nor the Election Commission bought their argument. The opposition fought the election on self-manifested issues like ‘Democracy is in Danger’ and ‘Secularism is in danger’ to name a few. In one such issue, opposition leaders, especially Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP claimed that if in case the Modi-Shah duo does win, then this shall be the last ever elections that India will witness. The same prophecy was seen turning true as EVM machines were found selling on the OLX website.
Reportedly, BJP is likely to bid a farewell to the Election Commission too and the office which is presently occupied by the ECI shall be taken over by the BJP and converted into a secondary headquarter. Confirmation awaited.
