The recent Lok Sabha poll results have been touted by the Congress as a political and moral defeat for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. At a press conference, Congress leaders Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi, and Rahul Gandhi highlighted that the election outcome signified the people's mandate against Modi's tenure.
