Narendra Modi's Victory in India's General Election
Narendra Modi secured his third term as India's Prime Minister after the recent general election. The Bharatiya Janata Party faced setbacks, losing 63 of their seats and needing smaller coalitions for a Lok Sabha majority. Despite a diminished status domestically, Modi might engage more assertively in foreign policy. Issues with neighboring countries like Myanmar, Pakistan, and China pose challenges. Modi's approach, marked by fostering division, may need adjustment in dealing with volatile neighbors, especially with nuclear capabilities.
