Upon contemplation, the actor found himself disheartened by the meager turnout at the polls. Despite his impassioned pleas for civic engagement, his entreaties fell upon deaf ears.

Expressing his dismay, the actor lamented, “The election outcome was indeed disheartening; firstly, the turnout was abysmal, and then the ensuing results… But can this administration truly navigate the governance for the next quinquennium?”

Furthermore, Lahiri offered scathing rebuke towards the voters of Ayodhya within the Faizabad Lok Sabha precinct, where Awadesh Prasad of the Samajwadi Party secured victory over Lallu Singh of the BJP by a formidable margin exceeding 59,000 votes.

Drawing parallels between the city’s storied past and its contemporary political landscape, Lahiri insinuated a recurring pattern of disloyalty among the city’s electorate towards their elected representatives.

However, amidst his despondency, Lahiri found solace in the triumphs of two individuals whom he held in high regard. He extended felicitations to actress Kangana Ranaut, whom he perceived as an emblem of feminine empowerment, for her electoral conquest in the Mandi Lok Sabha constituency.

Furthermore, he expressed elation at the electoral triumph of his compatriot and confidant, Arun Govil, renowned for his portrayal of Lord Ram in Ramayan, who embarked upon a political odyssey by contesting the Lok Sabha elections from Meerut.
