According to sources, this Thursday evening, New Delhi's Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar and Election Commissioners Gyanesh Kumar and Sukhbir Singh Sandhu will be meeting with President Droupadi Murmu to present her with the list of candidates who emerged victorious in the Lok Sabha elections. This will mark the start of the formal process to constitute the 18th Lok Sabha.
The decision to dissolve the 17th Lok Sabha was made on Wednesday after the President accepted the recommendation of the Union Cabinet. This paves the way for Prime Minister Narendra Modi to form the government at the Centre for a third consecutive term, following the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance's victory in the recent parliamentary polls. The NDA was able to secure 293 seats, while the opposition INDIA bloc won 234 seats.
After presenting the list to the President, the Commission will also be paying their respects at Raj Ghat. This is a solemn occasion where floral tributes will be offered as a mark of respect to Mahatma Gandhi, the father of the nation. This gesture serves as a reminder of the principles and values that our leaders strive to uphold in our democratic nation.
