Expect BJP to be single-largest party, but its tally can be cut to stop it from forming government: Congress leader Shashi Tharoor

IndiaTimes Sunday, 14 January 2024
According to Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, the BJP is anticipated to be the largest party in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. However, Tharoor suggests that the party's potential allies might withdraw support if the BJP's tally decreases, leading them to back the opposition alliance. Tharoor made these remarks during the Kerala Literature Festival on Saturday. He also noted that while some states may witness collaboration among opposition parties with a unified candidate against the BJP, other states might have two or three candidates, leaving voters to decide who they believe would best represent them.
