However, the Congress party witnessed significant growth, clinching 99 seats, while the INDIA bloc exceeded the 230 mark, defying earlier predictions and posing formidable competition to NDA's 292 seats
As PM Modi gears up for his third consecutive term, the outpouring of congratulatory messages from global leaders underscores the significance of India's role on the world stage and highlights the strong bilateral relations fostered under his leadership. (ANI)
