We wake up to a saffron day and quite a lot of us would have had the most peaceful of sleeps last night having known that Modi-led BJP has secured a majority on its own and the wider NDA will get the opportunity to lead this great nation for the second time in a row. In Jan 2019, I had presented my thoughts with mathematical arguments on why BJP alone should score 290-300 seats in Lok Sabha elections after being prodded by a friend. I received disbelief, doubt, hope and trust among many emotions and responses. However, what helped me state so confidently as the elections came and went was outright mockery by the left liberal ecosystem and the robust 67%+ electoral turnout (a general election record beating 66.4% of last time). Today, albeit by a small margin, I am glad that I am proven wrong and the Modi Juggernaut exceeded my calculations by securing 303 seats and a ~37% vote share (my guess in Jan 2019 was a minimum of 35.6%). This event has notable takeaways for us Bhaaratiyas and some cautionary indications as well.
