In addition, the Paris 2024 Olympics, held after a five-year gap, featured a significant participation of Indian athletes, with 117 competitors across 16 sports disciplines. This contingent, comprising 70 men and 47 women, aimed for medals and garnered considerable attention as India continues to grow in Olympic sports. On the political front, a major highlight was the Lok Sabha elections of 2024, during which the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) secured a third consecutive term with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the helm, making the BJP one of the most searched terms this year.
