Additionally, top officials from Delhi Police conducted a thorough security review at Rashtrapati Bhavan to prepare for Narendra Modi's swearing-in ceremony. Special security measures have also been arranged for foreign dignitaries attending the swearing-in ceremony, including enhanced protocols at three designated hotels where the dignitaries will be staying. In addition to on-ground security, Delhi Police issued a public advisory on Friday announcing a No-Fly Zone over the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi.
Meanwhile, the first session of the 18th Lok Sabha will likely begin around June 15, news agency PTI reported citing the sources.
The first session will commence in the third week of June, with the oath-taking by the newly elected candidates as members of the House, which is likely to continue for two days, after which a new Speaker will be elected. The next day, the sources said the president would address a joint meeting between Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, thus formally inaugurating the session. However, the new Union Cabinet will take the final call on the session dates. The session is likely to conclude on June 22.
Lok Sabha elections 2024 results:
A simple majority of 272 seats is required to form the government. According to the Election Commission of India, the BJP won 240 seats, significantly lower than its 2019 tally of 303. The Congress made substantial gains, winning 99 seats. The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) secured 293 seats, while the INDIA bloc crossed the 230 mark, posing stiff competition and defying predictions.

Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge during the CWC meeting said,
- I would also like to congratulate the people's favourite, Rahul Gandhi ji, who has made issues like the Constitution, economic inequality, unemployment and social justice and harmony a public issue.
- This is the result of the 4,000-km-long Bharat Jodo Yatra and then the 6,600-km-long Bharat Jodon Nyay Yatra led by Rahul ji two years ago, which helped us connect with the people and understand their problems, concerns and aspirations. On this basis, the Congress party prepared its election campaign.
- I would like to especially congratulate Priyanka Ji, who campaigned vigorously in Amethi and Rae Bareli, as well as in other parts of the country.
- I would like to thank all my senior Congress colleagues who worked as a TEAM. Our collective efforts resulted in our workers across the country working with new zeal and enthusiasm. They made significant contributions in their respective fields. We must always remember that with hard work and determination, we can defeat even the biggest opponent.
- Here, I would like to specifically mention that wherever Bharat Jodo Yatra and Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra passed, the Congress Party's vote percentage and seats increased.
- In Manipur, from where Nyay Yatra started, we won both the seats. We got seats in many states of the Northeast like Nagaland, Assam, and Meghalaya. In Maharashtra, we emerged as the largest party. Across the country, the Congress Party received immense support from the people to save democracy and the Constitution.
