With Maharashtra lost, BJP has witnessed a steep fall. In March 2018, when the party was at its peak, BJP and its allies controlled 76% of the country’s area and over 69% of population. Since then, BJP has lost elections in big states like Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. After Maharashtra failure, it now controls 37.4% of India’s area and 45.6% of its population.
