NEW DELHI - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ruling alliance is likely to win a clear majority in parliament after a mammoth general election that ended on Sunday, most exit polls showed, a far better showing than expected in recent weeks.
Modi faced criticism early on in the campaign for failing to create jobs for youth and for weak farm prices and the election race was thought to be tightening with the main opposition Congress party gaining ground. Modi’s National Democratic Alliance is projected to win 287 seats in the 545-member lower house of parliament followed by 128 for the Congress party-led opposition alliance, CVoter exit poll showed.Exit polls, though, have a mixed record in a country with an electorate of 900 million people.
According to another poll released by Times Now television, Modi’s alliance is likely to get 306 seats, a clear majority. One poll by Neta Newsx, though, forecast Modi’s group falling 30 seats short.

That’s an incredible achievement winning two consecutive elections. Except for some of his controversial statements, he has done an immense job over last 5 and it will just get better. Congrats India 🙌

Hello Reuters, Modi is not winning because he invoked Hinduism. He’s winning because he worked against corruption, for development, and for non compromising patriotism. People see and understand this you know.

India’s lower-caste Dalits, who helped elect Modi, now threaten to oust himDalit voters say Modi has failed to keep his economic pledges, while others point to growing caste-based violence and a perception that Modi’s government has diluted some legal protections for Dalits. Factually incorrect on all counts! More lies from the American media. Your interviews are selective, and you have no data to back up your claims. There are so many Dalits and others who love Modi. Why didn't you vote for them? This reads like a press release from Congress party and Western NGO system. You totally ignore the fact that Modi himself comes from a so-called 'lower' caste. He is loved by all groups of Indians, while the elites of India love the corrupt Congress party. BJP is for the development of the masses, and of all backgrounds. Get your facts straight.
