India's Lok Sabha Elections Enter Critical Third Phase

As millions vote in key states, the BJP seeks to maintain dominance amid high-profile contests and strategic alliances.

93 Lok Sabha seats across 12 states are up for grabs, with the BJP defending strongholds in Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP stalwarts like Amit Shah are among those casting votes, highlighting the phase's significance.
Voter turnout and strategic alliances, such as Congress with AAP in Gujarat, play crucial roles in determining outcomes.
High-profile candidates like Jyotiraditya Scindia and controversies in states like Karnataka add layers to the electoral battle.
Results of this phase could significantly influence the overall balance of power in the Lok Sabha, with results announced on June 4.
