“Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist party appeared to be set for a severe setback amid a strong fight from a revived opposition, early Indian election results showed,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party alliance should still get the largest share of seats in the 543-seat lower house of parliament and form the government, but Modi’s party appeared to be struggling to hold on to an outright majority after a campaign in which the prime minister pledged to win more seats than ever.”
New York Times: Modi’s party may need partners to form government.
