Lok Sabha Election 2024: With Lok Sabha elections looming, social media is buzzing with memes and theories to encourage voter turnout. The Election Commission of India (ECI) has joined the trend by sharing a meme featuring scenes from Season 2 of the web series The Family Man.
In the meme, Manoj Bajpayee declines a lunch invitation, accompanied by the caption, ¡°#ElectionMeme: ???? ???!! ?? ?????? ?????, ?? ?????? ????? #IVote4Sure #ChunavKaParv #DeshKaGarv #Elections2024 #Memes,¡± which translates to ¡°wait a minute!! Today we will vote, tomorrow we will have refreshments¡±.
Another caption adds humour, stating, ¡°When your girlfriend asks you for a lunch date on Election Day.¡± Social media users, familiar with Bajpayee's role in The Family Man, are enjoying the reference.
The post has garnered over 11.6k views on X platform and elicited various reactions. One user humorously remarked, ¡°Everyone graduated from Meme university.¡± Another user expressed concern about being unable to vote due to college exams, prompting a response from a third user suggesting the Election Commission is relaxed about the matter.
In the landmark 2019 elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured a significant victory with 303 seats, while its coalition, the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), clinched 352 seats.
As India gears up for the crucial 2024 elections, there's a notable shift in the political landscape. The Indian National Congress, leading a coalition of over two dozen parties known as the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (or "India" for short), emerges as a principal contender.
Key figures in this alliance include Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, along with siblings Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi, carrying forward their father's legacy, former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi.
Voting is scheduled across the country on seven polling days: April 19, April 26, May 7, May 13, May 20, May 25, and June 1. The results are set to be announced on June 4.
