Lok Sabha Results Live Updates: Abhishek Banerjee Meets Akhilesh Yadav

TMC leader Abhishek Banerjee today met Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav. In a post on X, he said, "Our unity is our strength and also the new hope of the people of the country! The public has morally defeated the BJP by not giving it a majority. The seats that the BJP has got have not been given by the public but by the people who are plotting and conspiring against the India alliance. Those who are foolishly going with the BJP today, they too, understanding the history of the BJP, are worried about the split of their party in the future. They too should respect the true mandate of the people and support the people in the campaign to free the country from the clutches of communal politics. No government can be complete on the foundation of the distrust that exists between them. History does not always provide such a historic opportunity to save the country, the constitution and democracy. Whoever misses it will miss out on recording his role as a history maker. Respect public opinion, respect the public!"

Lok Sabha Results Live: Rahul Questions Modi, Shah's Advice To People For Investing In Stocks

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said, "Why did the PM and Union Home Minister give specific investment advice to the five crore families investing in the stock market? Is it their job to give investment advice? Why were both interviews given to the same media owned by the same business group which is also under SEBI investigation for manipulating stock? What is the connection between the BJP, the fake exit pollsters and the dubious foreign investors who invested one day before the exit polls were announced and made a huge profit at the cost of five crore salaries? We demand a JPC into this. We are convinced that this is a scam. Somebody has made thousands of crores of rupees at the cost of Indian retail investors and the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister have given an indication to buy. So we demand today a joint parliamentary committee to investigate this."
