The Gujarat Lok Sabha elections were conducted on May 7, 2024, across 26 seats. This year, 35 Muslim candidates contested, although none were fielded by Congress.

The main opposition, comprising the Congress and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) under the INDIA bloc, is striving to challenge BJP's dominance.

Prominent candidates include Amit Shah in Gandhinagar, Purshottam Rupala in Rajkot, Mansukh Mandaviya in Porbandar, Mitesh Rameshbhai Patel in Anand, and Nimu Bambhania in Bhavnagar.

Notably, Surat did not participate in the polling this year as BJP candidate Mukesh Dalal was declared elected unopposed on April 23, 2024, following the rejection of the Congress candidate's nomination and withdrawal of other contenders.

The BJP's stronghold in Gujarat has remained unchallenged in previous elections, sweeping all 26 seats in both 2014 and 2019. In the 2019 elections, the BJP replicated its clean sweep with a voter turnout of 64.11 per cent.

This year, exit polls predicted another sweeping victory for the BJP, despite the Congress-AAP alliance's efforts to break the streak.
