All arrangements are in place for vote counting on Tuesday in Gujarat's 25 Lok Sabha seats. The BJP aims to repeat its clean sweep, while Congress seeks to halt their momentum. Voting concluded on May 7 with a turnout of 60.13%. Security is tight, with counting centers ready for the crucial day.

The BJP has already secured the Surat seat unopposed, eliminating Congress' Nilesh Kumbhani due to nomination irregularities. The party aims to maintain its record in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's home state.

Prominent candidates include Union Home Minister Amit Shah from Gandhinagar, facing backlash from the Kshatriya community over controversial remarks. The Congress hopes its alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party will prevent the BJP’s sweep.
