The 2024 Lok Sabha elections are showing a trend of decreasing voter enthusiasm, with Phase 2 turnout lower than in 2019. Despite crossing 63.5% by 10 pm, the final figure is expected to fall well below 69.39% recorded in 2019. With 191 constituencies already polled, concerns arise over this trend continuing in the remaining phases. Factors like impending heat waves and historical turnout trends suggest India may not surpass the 67% record high seen in 2019, possibly reverting to pre-2019 levels.
