An Indian paramilitary soldier stands guard outside a room where voting machines are stored as counting of votes in India's massive general elections begins in New Delhi, India, May 23, 2019.
Vote counting began May 23 morning in India's massive general elections, which have been forecast to keep Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist party in power.In the world's largest democratic exercise, some 900 million people were registered to cast ballots for 542 seats in India's lower house of Parliament in seven phases of voting staggered over six weeks.
The election has been seen as a referendum on Modi, whose economic reforms haven't broadly succeeded but whose popularity as a social underdog in India's highly stratified society has endured.
Losing candidates and political parties have raised doubts about the accuracy and reliability of the electronic method, however, noting the machines are not used in Britain, France, Germany, the Netherlands and the United States.Top opposition leaders met with Election Commission officials on Tuesday after videos appeared on social media showing some electronic voting machines being moved.
The party officials alleged that the machines were being moved in order to be altered, but the commission said the images showed unused machines being moved into storage.

Modi proclaims a cleaner India, but the reality may be more murkyEvery morning around dawn, dozens of people gather by the dusty banks of a strea... 'may be more' speculation disguised as news Cleaner India has to be clean in mind and thoughts too If it had not been for Modi, nobody would have attention to this issue. Which reporter was writing about it in 2014? There are still areas of improvement and let Modi focus on them in his 2nd term.

Modi proclaims a cleaner India, but the reality may be more murkyEvery morning around dawn, dozens of people gather by the dusty banks of a strea... Best is he attempted to make such 'Cleaner India' which he succeeded too in this short period! Nobody gave any shit before that.. Prime Minister Modi is still in power even after losing the air war with Pakistan? Amazing. He must have old friends in power that are as old as India’s warplanes. Extraordinarily idiotic reporting even by standards. 'Many people in north and south India told Reuters that a lack of toilets near fields where farmers spend their day' Somebody traveling in the wilderness would defecate in the open if nature calls.
