Italy: good evening everyone, and thank you very much for accepting the invitation to participate in the G7 Outreach session here in Puglia under the Italian Presidency.

We didn’t choose this place by chance, we chose it because Puglia is a southern region of Italy and because it is a land that has historically represented a bridge between West and East, a place of dialogue in the ‘middle sea’ that, through northern Africa and the Middle East, connects the two great maritime spaces of the globe: the Atlantic on one side and the Indo-Pacific on the other.

This place and this wide outreach that we wanted to invite are a clear message from the G7 under the Italian Presidency. We will never accept the narrative that wants the ‘West against the rest’. We know we can only deal with the global challenges we are facing if we are able to cooperate with respect and with a peer-to-peer approach. Among the many global challenges that we are called on to face in this period, we decided to dedicate the Outreach session to those that we consider very pressing: Artificial Intelligence first of all, with the opportunities it opens up and the risks it hides; the Mediterranean, an area of crisis and a place of dialogue; the African continent, with which we work to build a completely new cooperation as equals; and, obviously, the need to deal without ideological approaches with climate change, which impacts above all on the nations of the Global South.

We will have two keynote speakers to start our work. His Holiness Pope Francis, who gave us the great honour to participate in our working session and will share with us his point of view on Artificial Intelligence. It is the first time that a Pontiff participates in a meeting of the Group of Seven, and this inevitably makes today’s appointment a historic moment. So, I will never thank you enough for being here, Your Holiness.

Then we will have His Excellency Mohamed Ould El Ghazouani, President of Mauritania and rotating Chair of the African Union, who will bring the point of view of African nations on the expectations of the continent.

I’ll stop here. Thank you again, Your Holiness. The floor is yours.

As the counting for the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 continues, it has become evident that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is struggling to secure a majority on its own. The INDIA bloc, a coalition of opposition parties formed to challenge the BJP, has gained significant ground, leading in 228 seats — a stark contrast to the exit polls that predicted less than 200 seats for them. In 2019, the BJP had secured a robust 303 seats independently, while the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) amassed 353 seats. Here are five critical factors that appear to have contributed to the BJP’s faltering performance this time around:

1. The Uttar Pradesh Shocker

One of the most unexpected developments has been in Uttar Pradesh, a crucial state for the BJP, where the INDIA bloc has won 40 of the 80 seats. This is a significant drop from 2019, when the BJP captured 62 seats in the state. The BJP’s campaign strategy heavily relied on large rallies featuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, and Union Home Minister Amit Shah. In contrast, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra adopted a grassroots approach, camping in Rae Bareli and Amethi, focusing on small, community-based meetings rather than grandiose rallies.

Political analysts have noted that the BJP’s decision to repeat many of its incumbent MPs, unlike its strategy in Delhi where it replaced all but six sitting MPs, might have contributed to voter fatigue and dissatisfaction.

2. Ram Mandir Campaign

The construction of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya was a cornerstone of the BJP’s campaign, expected to galvanize support. However, the issue did not seem to resonate with the voters as anticipated. This is exemplified by the BJP trailing in the Faizabad constituency, which encompasses Ayodhya. In neighboring constituencies, the BJP is leading in only two out of seven seats. The Congress is leading in Amethi and Barabanki, while the Samajwadi Party (SP) is ahead in Sultanpur, Ambedkarnagar, and Basti. Both Congress and SP are part of the INDIA bloc.

3. The Agnipath Scheme

The Agnipath scheme, aimed at recruiting soldiers, has faced severe criticism, particularly from Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. This scheme appears to have negatively impacted the BJP’s performance, especially in Rajasthan and Haryana, states that contribute significantly to the defense and paramilitary forces. In Haryana, where the BJP swept all ten seats in 2019, the party is now leading in only five, with the Congress ahead in the other five. Similarly, in Rajasthan, the BJP+ alliance, which had won all 25 seats in 2019, is leading in just 14, with Congress ahead in eight.

4. Splits in Maharashtra

In Maharashtra, the BJP has encountered setbacks, leading in only 12 seats compared to the 23 seats it won in 2019. The Congress is leading in 11 seats, while the Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray faction), an INDIA bloc partner, is leading in ten seats. The Eknath Shinde faction of Shiv Sena, aligned with the BJP, is leading in six seats. The split within Shiv Sena in 2022 and the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) in 2023 has seemingly confused and disillusioned voters. Delays in announcing NDA candidates and ongoing Maratha agitations for reservations in education and government jobs have also played a role in the BJP’s diminished performance.

5. Turncoats

Several Congress members who switched allegiance to the BJP have not fared well in the elections. In Punjab, Ravneet Bittu and Preneet Kaur, both Congress defectors, are trailing. Similarly, in Haryana, Ashok Tanwar, who joined the BJP just before the elections, is also trailing in the Sirsa constituency. These defections seem to have backfired, with voters possibly perceiving them as opportunistic rather than genuine representatives of change.

Conclusion

The 2024 Lok Sabha elections have revealed significant challenges for the BJP, from strategic missteps in key states like Uttar Pradesh to the repercussions of controversial policies such as the Agnipath scheme. Additionally, internal splits within allied parties in Maharashtra and the poor performance of turncoat candidates have further dented the BJP’s prospects. As the results continue to roll in, it is clear that the party will need to undertake a thorough introspection and recalibrate its strategies to regain its footing in Indian politics.

New Delhi: Throughout the election season, the BJP held firm on its ambitious target of 400 Lok Sabha seats for the NDA, rallying behind the slogan ‘ab ki baar 400 paar’ despite the opposition’s relentless mockery. If three exit polls are accurate, the ruling party might have the last laugh.

Two polls have predicted ranges with figures just over 400 on the higher end, while News 24-Today’s Chanakya has forecasted a precise tally of 400 for the NDA. This number comes with a margin of error of 15 seats, indicating a potential range of 385 to 415 seats. India TV-CNX has projected a range of 371-401 seats, and India Today-Axis My India has estimated 361-401 seats.

However, it’s crucial to note that exit polls can often be incorrect.

In 2019, the NDA secured 352 seats, with the BJP winning 303 on its own. If Prime Minister Narendra Modi secures a third consecutive term, it would be historic, showcasing the party and alliance’s election prowess if the NDA reaches even the lower end of these predictions.

A tally of 361, the minimum figure predicted by India Today-Axis My India, would mean the alliance has improved its performance in each successive election, signaling minimal anti-incumbency and highlighting PM Narendra Modi’s enduring popularity.

The opposition INDIA Alliance, which claimed on Saturday that it will win 295 constituencies, has been projected to win 107 (plus-minus 11) by Today’s Chanakya, 109-139 by CNX, and 131-166 by Axis My India.

With 80 Lok Sabha seats, Uttar Pradesh remains a crucial battleground. In 2019, the BJP won 62 seats when the Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party were allied. Now, with the Samajwadi Party allied with the Congress, all three polls predict the BJP will improve its tally in the state. News 24-Today’s Chanakya forecasts 68 (plus-minus 7) seats, India Today-Axis My India estimates 67-72 seats, and India TV-CNX projects 70-74 seats for the BJP.

All three polls also suggest the NDA will perform better in the South compared to 2019. Another significant prediction from the exit polls is that the BJP will secure more seats than the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal, with Axis My India projecting 26-31 of the state’s 42 seats for the ruling party at the Centre.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi embarked on a whirlwind tour of Maharashtra, orchestrating a series of six rallies in just two days. This intensive campaign blitz aims to invigorate the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) electoral prospects in the state ahead of crucial polls.

PM Modi’s itinerary underscores the BJP’s concerted efforts to galvanize support and consolidate its position in Maharashtra’s political landscape. With each rally strategically located to maximize impact, the Prime Minister’s presence serves to energize party cadres and rally grassroots support.

The PM’s engagements span a diverse array of constituencies, ranging from urban centers to rural heartlands, signaling the BJP’s inclusive approach to garnering electoral backing. By addressing a broad spectrum of issues pertinent to Maharashtra’s populace, PM Modi seeks to resonate with voters across demographics and socio-economic strata.

Simultaneously, PM Modi’s rally blitz underscores the BJP’s organizational prowess and campaigning machinery, leveraging the party’s formidable infrastructure to orchestrate a high-octane electoral offensive. This proactive approach reflects the BJP’s determination to secure electoral victories and advance its political agenda in Maharashtra.

Amidst the political fervor, Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s arrival in Beijing garners attention, signaling significant developments in the tech world. Musk’s visit to China, following the postponement of his India trip, underscores Tesla’s strategic priorities and global ambitions.

According to reports, Musk’s discussions in China revolve around Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology, highlighting the company’s efforts to expand its innovative offerings into new markets. Tesla’s endeavors to navigate regulatory challenges and enhance cybersecurity measures underscore its commitment to technological advancement and market penetration.

Moreover, Tesla’s recent restructuring efforts, including significant job cuts and executive departures, underscore the company’s drive to streamline operations and address challenges. Despite headwinds, Tesla’s initiatives, such as price reductions and plans to launch lower-cost electric vehicles, underscore its resilience and adaptability in a competitive landscape.

As PM Modi’s rally blitz reverberates across Maharashtra and Elon Musk’s strategic engagements unfold in China, both events underscore the dynamic interplay between politics and technology, shaping narratives and influencing outcomes on the global stage.

Recently In an interview, Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighted the significance of maintaining Indian identity in global investments, echoing his stance ahead of Elon Musk’s anticipated visit to India later this month. Speaking to ANI, PM Modi reiterated the importance of products being manufactured by Indians, ensuring employment opportunities for the nation’s youth.

During the interview, PM Modi addressed the buzz surrounding Elon Musk’s admiration for India, emphasizing that the tech billionaire’s support extends beyond individuals to the nation as a whole. Reflecting on his past interactions with Musk, PM Modi recalled their meeting at the Tesla factory in 2015 and subsequent discussions during his visit to the US in 2023.

Elon Musk’s impending visit to India has sparked widespread anticipation, with expectations of major investment announcements, particularly in the electric vehicle (EV) sector. In a recent statement, Musk expressed Tesla’s interest in providing electric vehicles in India, aligning with the country’s commitment to advancing its EV domain.

PM Modi underscored India’s rapid progress in the EV sector, citing a significant surge in sales from 2,000 units in 2014-15 to 12 lakh units in 2023-24. He attributed this growth to various factors, including government incentives, infrastructure development, and increasing consumer interest.

Highlighting India’s attractiveness for global investments, PM Modi cited examples of leading companies like Google, Apple, and Samsung making significant strides in the country. He emphasized India’s eagerness for technology transfer and reiterated his government’s commitment to the ‘Make in India’ initiative.

The accelerated pace of Elon Musk’s visit to India follows the unveiling of the country’s new EV policy, which offers incentives for setting up manufacturing units. The policy mandates significant levels of domestic value addition and imposes customs duties on imported vehicles, incentivizing local manufacturing.

Reports suggest that Tesla is actively exploring options for setting up a manufacturing plant in India, with offers from states like Maharashtra and Gujarat for land acquisition. The prospect of Tesla’s presence in the Indian market signals a significant development in the nation’s electric mobility landscape.

As India gears up to welcome Elon Musk and potential investments, PM Modi’s emphasis on preserving Indian identity amidst global ventures underscores the country’s commitment to economic growth and self-reliance.
