According to rumors, Prime Minister Narendra Modi would conclude his campaign for the Lok Sabha Elections of 2024 with a 48-hour spiritual retreat at the Vivekananda Rock Memorial in Tamil Nadu. The Prime Minister, the most well-known spokesperson for the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), is scheduled to arrive at the scenic memorial off the coast of Kanyakumari on May 30. On June 1, the final day of voting, he may depart for Delhi, according to reports citing sources. On Wednesday, May 30, the seven-phase Lok Sabha Elections 2024 campaign comes to a finish. On June 4, the results will be made public.
According to a report by NDTV, the 73-year-old prime minister will practice meditation at the Dhyan Mandapam, the Memorial's auditorium, from May 30 to June 1. The Memorial holds spiritual significance as it is thought that Swami Vivekananda spent three days in meditation on a rock at the confluence of the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal, and Indian Ocean, some 500 meters off the mainland, following his travels around the nation.  It is reported that Vivekananda reached enlightenment here. On May 25, the sixth phase of voting concluded for 486 of the 543 Lok Sabha seats. Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the BJP-led NDA is vying for a record-breaking third term and hopes to capture 400 seats. The Congress-led opposition parties, united under the INDIA bloc banner, pose a threat to the ruling coalition. On June 1, 2024, the seventh and final round of the Lok Sabha elections will take place. Voters from 57 Lok Sabha constituencies spanning across eight states and UT will exercise their right to vote during the seventh phase of election.
On June 1, elections will also take place in Varanasi, the Uttar Pradesh seat that PM Modi now holds. Ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha Election results, Prime Minister Modi was shown meditating in a sacred cave close to Kedarnath, Uttarakhand, while wearing saffron robes. In the 543-member Lok Sabha in 2019, the BJP secured 303 seats, securing a resounding majority.
