To accommodate the magnitude of expected voters, the democratic elections will be carried out in 7 phases. India has a population of 1.3 billion people and growing. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, leader of the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), is seeking reelection for another five-year term and has been running extensive political campaigns throughout the nation over the past months.

However, Since PM Modi took the office, violence by right-wing Hindu groups has increased. The ambitious PM Modi is focused on building India’s GDP to a double digit and has proven his capability as he has presided over rapid economic growth and large investments in infrastructure such as roads and airports.

The official results of the elections will be announced on 23 May 2019.
