We are privileged to have Neelanjan Sircar and Rahul Verma, two accomplished scholars of Indian politics, as guest editors of this special issue on India's 2024 Parliamentary Election. We believe that a year's span is perfect timing for digesting and analysing a significant electoral mandate. The guest editors must be congratulated for attracting a distinguished group of scholars to reflect on the significant learnings from this momentous election. It cannot be overemphasized that the 2024 General Elections were historic. The Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), after two resounding successes in the parliamentary elections of 2014 and 2019, had made loud declarations that the Party was destined to cross 400 seats in the parliament in 2024. It was a widespread concern among the political opposition that such a result would be permanently debilitating for India's democratic trajectory. Table of Contents
