New Delhi: It was a changed scenario in the new Lok Sabha with the churning brought out by the elections throwing in contrasts.
While BJP led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi was in full strength on the Treasury benches, Congress was a decimated lot on the Opposition with just 44 members, its lowest tally ever.
Amid thumping of desks, Modi walked into the Lok Sabha as the victor closely followed by senior BJP leader L K Advani.
Clad in an off-white slightly cream-coloured kurta, Modi greeted the members with a smile before going around the front rows and exchanged pleasantries with the members.
As he reached the Congress benches, Congress chief Sonia Gandhi was walking into the aisle. Both greeted each other with folded hands.
