India Elections: Modi Suffers Narrow Victory in Third Term Challenge

Reported 11 months ago

India's 2024 elections saw the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) led by Narendra Modi falling short of expectations, winning only 240 out of 543 seats in the Lower House of Parliament. With the need to form a coalition government, the BJP's defeat was attributed to factors such as economic challenges, loss of traditional support in key states like Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra, and the failure to address issues affecting the lower classes. The election results indicate a shift in Indian politics and potential implications for nationalistic sentiments and foreign policy, posing challenges for the BJP's future governance strategies. This could further impact international relations, including those with Taiwan, amid increasing tensions with China and Pakistan.
