Two days after taking the oath as the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi took to X to thank people for their support of him and his NDA alliance. He also asked people to remove “Modi ka Parivaar” from their social media handles, stating that their bond was unbreakable. “Through the election campaign, people across India added ‘Modi Ka Parivar’ to their social media as a mark of affection towards me. I derived a lot of strength from it,” he wrote.
PM Modi further mentioned that people have “given the NDA a majority for the third consecutive time, a record of sorts, and have given us the mandate to keep working for the betterment of our nation.” In the Lok Sabha elections, the BJP-led alliance managed to secure 293 seats. The result, however, came as a shock to many who had claimed that the NDA would secure over 400 seats.
