With 900 million eligible voters, India’s election is a gargantuan undertaking and will be held in seven phases, ending on May 19.

By Joanna Slater Joanna Slater Foreign correspondent covering South Asia Email Bio Follow March 10 at 9:33 AM NEW DELHI — The world’s largest democratic elections will take place in seven phases starting on April 11 as Indian voters head to the polls to select their next government.

On Sunday, India’s Election Commission said the first stage of the polls will take place on April 11, followed by six other stages concluding on May 19. The results will be announced on May 23. Prime Minister Narendra Modi visits the National Cemetery in Seoul on Feb. 22. Since Modi took office, violence by right-wing Hindu groups has increased, as has intimidation of journalists. He has presided over rapid economic growth and large investments in infrastructure such as roads and airports, but that expansion has not had a commensurate impact on job creation.
