Prime Minister Narendra Modi has set the tone for the upcoming elections in the first week of February itself when in his speech at the Parliament he asserted that ruling BJP will win more than 370 seats and with its alliances it will cross the 400 mark in 543 members house (Lok Sabha). PM Modi take a jibe on the Congress and said that after the general elections in 2024 the opposition will be seen in the visitors gallery only.

The BJP will form the next government along with the help of some new alliances in one of the most controversial and volatile general elections 2024 in India.
Before we come to the foundation horoscope of BJP and birth chart of Prime Minister Modi let’s study the prospect for the opposition parties.
This time BJP will get 370+ and NDA will cross 400 seats, assert PM Modi
Chart 1. Horoscope of I.N.D.I.A Alliance
18 July 2023 at 16h. 20m. at Bangaluru , at 77 E 35 and 12 N 59 with a balance of 11 years 0 months 25 days of Saturn Dasha at birth.
A big tent alliance of 28 political parties led by Congress announced its formation name as ‘I.N.D.I.A.’ in a press congress at Bangaluru, Karnataka on the 18th of July 2023 at 16 hours and 20 minutes. The chart 1. is cast for the time of the announce of I.N.D.I. A. alliance which is of Scorpio lagna. The Moon as the lord of 9th house is in auspicious Pushya Nakshtra and it is along with 10th lord the Sun in the 9th house of luck and they are conjoined with 11th (gains) lord Mercury. This yoga shows that this alliance can give good performance in states where they have regional satrap like in Maharashtra, Bihar, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu and Jharkhand.
Disputes Between I.N.D.I.A alliance parties
The announce of I.N.D.I.A. alliance was made on Tuesday ruled by the Mars which as the lord of 6th house of disputes is in conjunction with 7th (Maraka) and 12th (losses) houses lord Venus and is in mutual aspect with Saturn which is a functional malefic planets for the Scorpio lagna.
The Dasha of a functional malefic Saturn and Anter Dasha of ‘Maraka’ Venus is running in the chart of I.N.D.I. A alliance suggest that this alliance will fail to meet its objective of winning general elections. Venus as the lord of 12th house of losses is afflicted due to the conjunction with 6th lord (quarrels) Mars and being in mutual aspect with the malefic Saturn which is retrograde. In transit the Mars and Saturn would be over the Maha Dasha lord Saturn in Aquarius which would be unfavorable for the alliance as there will be lots of disputes between them and after the elections some of the parties may left the group in desperation.
As per the Jaimini system the Chara Dasha of Scorpio-Virgo running at the time of general elections in the chart 1 is unfavorable as Amatayakaraka Jupiter is in the 6th from Scorpio and is in the 8th from the Anter Dasha Rashi Virgo. Thus, I.N.D.I.A. alliance will not be able to defeat its opponent BJP despite their great efforts.
Chart 2. Foundation Horoscope of India
15 August 1947 at 00h. 00m. at New Delhi , at 77 E 13 and 28 N 40 with a balance of of 18 years 0 months 25 days of Saturn Dasha at birth.
This year during the general elections the transiting Saturn would be in Aquarius the sign of religion and welfarism. The ruling BJP government will try to project a ‘happy narrative’ after the inauguration of Ram Mandir at Ayodhya and will invoke the sentiments of the public on the matters of cultural nationalism. The ruling BJP government is also likely to bank on getting votes on their welfare schemes particularly related with women’s as in the foundation horoscope of the country (chart 2) the Vimshottari Dasha of the Moon and the Anter Dasha of Venus is running current.
Baneful Ashtam Shani Gochar for India
However, the transiting Saturn from the 8th house of the natal Moon in the foundation horoscope of India is a ‘Baneful Ashtam Shani Gochar’ which will bring violence, scandals and controversies troubling the central government of India. The voting for the general elections in India is likely to take place during the Moon-Venus-Rahu period from 14th of February 2024 to 15 May 2024.
The Dasha and Anter Dasha lords the Moon and Venus are feminine planets which shows that during the elections most of the political parties will promise new welfare schemes to woo the women votes of the country. The Pratyanter Dasha lord Rahu is strongly placed in the lagna but falls in the 12th house in Navamsha shows some violence, scandals and charges of electoral misconduct. From the mid of March to the end of April month the transiting Mars will be in conjunction with Saturn in Aquarius sign which also shows some violence related with religious fundamentalism. The conjunction of Saturn and Mars will badly affect the state of West Bengal ruled by Gemini. The 9th house from Gemini will get affected by this conjunction of Saturn and Mars which shows religious frenzy and political violence during the General elections 2024 in the state of West Bengal.

The Pisces lagna horoscope of Congress I (chart 3) is set for the time when Indira Gandhi had split the party for the second time to get her own brand of Congress, the harbinger of the political fragmentation after the humiliating loss of 1977 elections. At present Jupiter Dasha and Rahu Anter Dasha is running from 9 October 2022 to 3 March 2025 in the foundation horoscope of Congress I. The Maha Dasha lord Jupiter is placed in its enemy sign Gemini and is in mutual aspect with 6th lord (disputes) the Sun and 8th lord (humiliation) Venus. However, the Anter Dasha lord Rahu is in the 7th house a Kendra Bhava, along with the 5th lord (Trikona lord) the Moon which is a good Raja Yoga.
But at the time of general elections the Pratyanter Dasha of Venus would be running which don’t show any major success. During the general elections the Congress I would be under Jupiter-Rahu-Venus period from 23rd of April to 16th of September 2024. The Anter Dasha lord Rahu is in Kendra along with trine lord the Moon is making a Raja Yoga. But the Pratyanter Dasha lord Venus as the functional malefic is combust and as the lord of 8th house shows a set-back. In Navamsha the Anter Dasha lord Rahu is in the 8th house and Antra lord Venus is afflicted by Saturn is showing another defeat in the elections.
However, the Jaimini Chara Dasha of Virgo-Pisces, having the favorable Jaimini aspect of Amataykaraka the Sun, indicate that the vote share of the party and number of seats will increase from their last performance in general elections held in 2019.
Chart 4. Horoscope of Rahul Gandhi
19 June 1970 at 14h. 28m. at New Delhi , at 77 E 13 and 28 N 40 with a balance of 5 years 9 months 25 days of Ketu Dasa at birth.
A Kemadruma Moon in the horoscope of Rahul Gandhi (chart 4 ), which is afflicted by natural malefic planets, gave him the image of a reluctant and immature political leader in his early years of career. As per Jaimini system the ‘Pada lagna’ is Aries (Mesha) which has debilitated Saturn getting Jaimini aspect by Rahu is also unhelpful for his public image. But the Janma lagna and Jupiter in it are both vargottama. Also, there is a Nakshatra exchange between yogakaraka Saturn and the lagna lord Venus which is promising for some progress in his career in future.
During Rahu Dasha and Jupiter Anter Dasha 26 December 2021 to 21 May 2024 Rahul Gandhi has transformed his image after undertaking the Bharat Jodo Yatra in 2022-23 for about 4000 kilometers (K.M.) of distance on foot in a duration of 136 days. Now at the time of general elections it would be Rahu-Jupiter-Rahu from January 2024 to May 2024 in the horoscope of Rahu Gandhi. Rahu is placed in the Aquarius sign at the 5th house which is good but its depositor Saturn is debilitated in the 7th house. Saturn is in the Rashi and Navamsha of Mars which is Maraka for his Tula lagna don’t show any major success.
But during the next Anter Dasha of Saturn from 21 May 2024 to 28 May 2027 his popularity as a mass leader will increase as Saturn is in Nakshtra Parivatan Yoga with Venus which is in the 10th house of career. So, it is only after the general elections that Rahul Gandhi can get some important role to play as the leader of opposition group in the parliament.
Chart 5. Foundation horoscope of BJP
6 April 1980 at 11h. 45m at New Delhi , at 77 E 13 and 28 N 40 with a balance of 5 years 0 months 12 days of Mercury Dasha at birth.
In the foundation horoscope of ruling BJP the majority of planets are in the Upachaya houses (3,6,10 and 11) which is her biggest strength. A strong ‘Ravi Yoga’ is present in this horoscope. In the book ‘Three Hundred Important Combinations’ by Dr. B.V. Raman the Ravi Yoga is given at page number 95 and 96. This Ravi Yoga is formed when Sun is at the 10th house and the lord of the 10th house is in the 3rd house in conjunction with Saturn. Dr. B.V. Raman mention in the results of this yoga as ‘respected by rulers, well-versed in sciences, becoming famous after the 15th year…….etc.’ In the foundation horoscope of BJP (chart 5) the 10th house has the Sun and the 10th lord Jupiter is in the 3rd house along with Saturn fulfilling the condition of classical Ravi Yoga. Interesting BJP has come into the power at the center for the first time in 1996 but for just 13 days when Vajpayee had to resign as he failed to prove his majority in the Lok Sabha. But later Vajypayee led BJP coalition government for 13 months from 1998 to 1999 and then a full term till 2004. Thus, BJP got the power at the center after 15 years of her formation which is what in the results of Ravi Yoga has been mentioned.
Kapti Yoga Effects in the horoscope of BJP
Another important yoga in the foundation horoscope of BJP is ‘Kapti Yoga’ due to the placement of strong Mercury in the 9th house along with malefic Ketu. In Jataka Tattwam ‘Prathama Viveka Adhyay’ Sloka number 58 it is mentioned that a strong Mercury in the 9th house with a natural malefic planet gives ‘Kapti Yoga’ which make one deceitful. Now the effects of this Kapti Yoga will be felt during the Anter Dasha of Mercury and also of ketu in the Maha Dasha of the Moon. The Dasha of Moon and Anter Dasha of Mercury will be running from 17th of February 2024 to 18th of July 2025 in the chart 5 of BJP. The Dasha lord Moon is involve in good ‘Neecha Bhanga Yoga’ ensure the return of BJP in power but the Anter Dasha of Mercury is sensitive for the health of her senior leadership and there will be troubles due to some scandal and unforeseen tragedies. The transit of Saturn from Aquarius over the Anter Dasha lord Mercury is also indicating the same.
Chart 6. . Annual horoscope of BJP completed year 44
The annual horoscope of BJP for completed year 44 has Muntha in the 6th house of disputes and quarrels along with the Moon, 6th lord Saturn and 8th lord Mars. At least two senior leaders of the ruling BJP may suffer serious health issues. In the Virgo lagna annual horoscope the 10th lord Mercury falls in the 8th house getting the aspect of 6th lord Saturn also shows troubles due to controversies and scandals during the operation of this chart i.e. from April 2024 to April 2025. The 10th lord Mercury is in the 8th house in the annual horoscope of BJP which shows a surprise results for the party. The BJP may not be able to get the fully majority at their own, like they did in 2014 and 2019 general election, and they may require to rope in some new alliances to form the government at the center.

In the Scorpio lagna horoscope of Prime Minister Modi (chart 7) the conjunction of 9th lord the Moon and lagna lord Mars is a good Raja Yoga of Parashari. As per Jaimini Atamakaraka Saturn and Amatayakaraka Venus are making a good Raja Yoga at the 10th house. Mars Dasha and Saturn Anter Dasha is till 6th of June 2024 which can get him re-elected as Prime Minister for the third term as Anter Dasha lord Saturn is in mutual aspect with 5th lord Jupiter. But since Saturn is the functional malefic so he may not get full majority like last two terms and will have to rope in new alliances to form his government at the center. Later the Anter Dasha of Mercury from 5th of June 2024 to 2nd June 2025 shows troubles from scandals and ill-health as Mercury being the lord of 8th and 11th house is a functional malefic in his chart and it is deep combusted.

The transiting Ketu in Virgo will be over the natal Mercury and the Sun in first half of 2025 shows troubles for him in health and career.
