After Prime Minister Narendra Modi asserting in a recent interview that “his image has not been created by the Khan Market gang, or Lutyens Delhi, but 45 years of his toil”, the national focus shifted to the ‘elite’ Khan Market gang which used to occupy the corridors of power in the national capital.
Hence, following BJP’s historic victory in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, the party leaders and workers decided to head over to the upscale Delhi shopping space at night for celebrations.
Delhi: BJP leader Ram Madhav along with supporters celebrates victory of the party, in Khan Market. Ram Madhav says,"Humare sare karyakarta ajj iss jeet ka utsav manane ke liye Khan market ko chuna hai. Abhi tak log sochte the ki Khan Market aur logon ka adda hai". pic.twitter.com/GF1YaX685O

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
