====Unemployment====
{{Main|Unemployment in India}}
According to the [[Pew Research Center]], a majority of Indian voters consider the lack of employment opportunities as a "very big problem" in their country. "About 18.6 million Indians were jobless and another 393.7 million work in poor-quality jobs vulnerable to displacement", stated the Pew report.<ref name="pewMarch252019a2" />

A report on unemployment prepared by the National Sample Survey Office's (NSSO's) periodic labour force survey, has not been officially released by the government. According to ''[[Business Today (India)|Business Today]]'', this report is the "first comprehensive survey on employment conducted by a government agency after Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced demonetisation move in November 2016". According to this report, the 2017–2018 "usual status"{{efn|name=jobs}} unemployment rate in India is 6.1 per cent, which is a four-decade high.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.businesstoday.in/current/economy-politics/india-unemployment-rate-hits-four-decade-high-of-6-pct-in-2017-says-nsso-survey/story/315420.html|title=India's unemployment rate hit four-decade high of 6.1% in 2017–18, says NSSO survey|website=businesstoday.in|date=31 January 2019 |access-date=14 March 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190327222013/https://www.businesstoday.in/current/economy-politics/india-unemployment-rate-hits-four-decade-high-of-6-pct-in-2017-says-nsso-survey/story/315420.html|archive-date=27 March 2019|url-status=live}}</ref>{{efn|name=jobs|The unemployment data in India is not collected on a monthly or an annual basis, rather it is determined through a sample survey once every 5 years, with a few exceptions.

Several organisations offered varying estimates for the cost of the election campaign. The Centre for Media Studies in New Delhi estimated that the election campaign could exceed $7 billion.<ref name="et041420192">{{cite news |date=15 April 2019 |title=Money, money, money: The tycoon factor in India's election |newspaper=Economynext |issue= |url=https://economynext.com/money-money-money-the-tycoon-factor-in-indias-election-13685/ |url-status=live |access-date=18 April 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230418011259/https://economynext.com/money-money-money-the-tycoon-factor-in-indias-election-13685/ |archive-date=18 April 2023}}</ref> According to the [[Association for Democratic Reforms]] (ADR), an election watchdog, in the financial year 2017–18 BJP received {{INRConvert|4370000000}}, about 12 times more donations than Congress and five other national parties combined.<ref name="et041420192" />

=== Political alliances ===
{{Main article|National Democratic Alliance|United Progressive Alliance|Communism in India}}

With the exception of 2014, no single party has won the majority of seats in the Lok Sabha since 1984, and therefore, forming alliances is the norm in Indian elections.

There were three main national pre-poll alliances. They are the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) headed by the BJP, the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) headed by the INC and the [[Communism in India#Alliances|Left Front]] of the communist leaning parties. Given the volatile nature of coalition politics in India, alliances may change during and after the election.

The INC did not form alliances in states where it is in direct contest with the BJP. These states include Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh. It formed alliances with regional parties in Jammu and Kashmir, Bihar, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Jharkhand, and Kerala.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/elections/news/indian-general-election-2019-why-congress-has-no-alliance-partners-in-these-states/articleshow/68738378.cms|title=General election 2019: Why Congress has no alliance partners in these states|last1=Kumar Shakti Shekhar|date=2019|access-date=16 April 2019|newspaper=Times of India|issue=5 April|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190407165130/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/elections/news/indian-general-election-2019-why-congress-has-no-alliance-partners-in-these-states/articleshow/68738378.cms|archive-date=7 April 2019|url-status=live}}</ref>

The left parties, most notably the [[Communist Party of India (Marxist)]] contested on its own in its strongholds [[West Bengal]], [[Tripura]] and [[Kerala]], confronting both NDA and UPA. In Tamil Nadu, it was part of [[Secular Progressive Alliance]] led by [[Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam|DMK]] and allied with [[Jana Sena Party]] in Andhra Pradesh.<ref>{{cite web| url = https://cpim.org/documents/review-17th-lok-sabha-elections| title = Review of the 17th Lok Sabha Elections| access-date = 25 January 2023| archive-date = 26 December 2022| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20221226044858/https://cpim.org/documents/review-17th-lok-sabha-elections| url-status = live}}</ref>

=== Political parties ===
More than 650 parties contested in these elections. Most of them were small with regional appeal. The main parties are the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Indian National Congress (INC). This was the first time that BJP (437) contested more seats than Congress (421) in the Lok Sabha elections.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/elections/news/a-first-bjp-to-contest-more-seats-than-congress/articleshow/69017165.cms|title=A first: BJP to contest more seats than Congress – Times of India|website=The Times of India|access-date=25 April 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190509040529/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/elections/news/a-first-bjp-to-contest-more-seats-than-congress/articleshow/69017165.cms|archive-date=9 May 2019|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{cite web|url=https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/national-elections-2019-bjp-contests-more-lok-sabha-seats-than-congress-for-the-first-time-2028249|title=BJP Contests More Lok Sabha Seats Than Congress For The First Time|website=NDTV.com|access-date=25 April 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190425083920/https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/national-elections-2019-bjp-contests-more-lok-sabha-seats-than-congress-for-the-first-time-2028249|archive-date=25 April 2019|url-status=live}}</ref>

About 40% of the candidates fielded by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party had a criminal case against them. Key opposition party Congress was not far behind with 39% of the candidates with criminal charges, according to Association of Democratic Reforms analysis.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/elections/lok-sabha/india/in-2019-general-elections-no-bar-on-candidates-charged-with-murder-or-rape/articleshow/69318220.cms?from=mdr|title=In 2019 general elections, no bar on candidates charged with murder or rape|date=14 May 2019|newspaper=The Economic Times|access-date=15 August 2019|archive-date=24 November 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201124024622/https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/elections/lok-sabha/india/in-2019-general-elections-no-bar-on-candidates-charged-with-murder-or-rape/articleshow/69318220.cms?from=mdr|url-status=live}}</ref>
