but they should not the b.j. the ruling party won a landslide here with twenty four teams winning seventy one out of eighty seats that was an election where they campaigned on things like the economy and making india i want to make india great again on what morty then called. all good days the rhetoric of the campaigning is different this time this is an election with the b j p of focusing on national security that they have a majority again in what they're for they take out have a majority. in new delhi without winning this socially facing a huge challenge this time from two powerful asian economies to form the coalition to take them all on and that's something that was seeing elsewhere in the country other regional council regional parties forming coalitions to really challenge the b j p in this election and there's a problem with that update there from our protest thank you as well for norman

speak to mindanao taco in new delhi he's a professor of political science. narrowed university myntra took us through some of the key issues here is this a referendum on modi off to the b j p's landslide victory in twenty fourteen. are you asking dutch would be good to be done. is this an issue of referendum on modi or or is this an issue of national security talk us through some of the key issues in this election. is the securities one of the cold issues arising there we. should be and with india is just going to strike and all that. b. has been able to raise or discourse on. each other gone into the psyche at the moment of the waters i think. in the post partisan psychology of the

country this was one of major issues and the leader of the government has invoked that once again so doc might have some impact. as we heard from our correspondent in is there she's also talking about how the economy was a huge issue in the last election is that an important issue this time around. yes the economy is the other thing which is very important and at the moment nobody knows that what would be more instances on the grass or an economy has been in very very bad shape and couple of initiating chicken by the government have just been seen for instance that. was a big disaster for the country for the common people and also for the small business and. the business community at large saw dark as one of the shows on employment is you know is a big issue for the you'll see there are video there jobs. is protesting

everywhere for instance one of the young man who was protesting modi during the attack on jane york he has become the icon of the u.s. from we have so i think these stories sure that extremely important so there are three struggling issues and we don't know which one becomes. which is james and which part of the country when you're in new delhi at the moment what's the tone of this election there and obviously wrong gandhi and his congress party are also participating is that did they pose a real challenge i mean he's arriving off the three generations of prime ministers . i think augurs part is participation of. the box in the congress family and the. family now to gandhi family will have a lot of impact particularly coming of. the daughter of sonia gandhi. it

is amazing he showed today but i do not saying it's going to have a very deep impact in the gospel today than it was in seeking that even age and it looks like as if that messes is going very slowly and since the party doesn't have any solid guys from the structure that mess is that they are producing a dissenter not to an accounting from the people of any foster whereas of egypt he has their good line days what they were doing at the center that take a decision and we didn't know what time it travels through the country so i do not know if their participation in it make much difference that moment but in the long ago i think that it was i mean back towards the end of the election probably this would have more impact than the beginning of when in trying not to talk or they're speaking to us from new delhi thank you feel inside. well still ahead on al jazeera

voting ends in israel but the coalition ago she asians are just getting started. and a former president's party stages a comeback in the democratic republic of congo but supporters of the current leader are keen to. hand over the clouds are gathering once more over parts of southeastern china for take a look at the satellite picture we can see the clouds at first it just in the north drifting their way towards the east but then a few brighter white areas of cloud begin to develop to the south of that and this is the area we've got to watch over the next few days that really gets going and then we see some very heavy downpours that thursday and on friday the whole thing is moving southward so that we saw on friday it will be the growing area and the growing don't province where we see the worst of the wet weather really does it very wet here i mean further towards the south in the some sunshine for most of us

in the southeastern parts of asia but also some shop showers around some particularly heavy ones have been there over the southern half of the philippines but we're also seeing plenty of a possible through java and into some our ship from the northwest impalas there's also one or two showers here particularly over parts of thailand and those will be stretching through cambodia and into parts of viet nam for friday as well one or two of us are likely to see a few showers here there's also some showers a further towards the northwest as well if we look at the satellite picture we can see them making their way across parts of bangladesh when those one sees i think we'll just see more developing particularly later on during the day so at first it shouldn't be too bad for the eastern parts draw yes holt's yes but the showers that pop up late on thursday and late on friday to. a face can tell a story without uttering a single. knowing. a

on state television is reporting that the army will make an important announcement soon the president has been under increasing pressure on wednesday demonstrators how the sit in for a fifth straight day outside the army headquarters. polls have opened in the first phase of india's general elections voting will go on for more than one month over seven phases final results are expected in late to me. while israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu looks set for a fifth term after his main rival conceded defeat in their general election that's despite benny gantz well it winning as many seats and as harry force that reports from west jerusalem netanyahu is. acted to get the support of small at right wing parties to form a coalition government. just hours after claiming victory came a different tone from the man now likely to become the leader of israel's opposition ten lots of the gulshan given the size of the blocks this is the reality

the fight isn't over the dialogues continue to mean. the day brought only growing certainty that the former army chiefs project to unseat israel's prime minister had failed. i believe b.b. king bibi had been a chance in the early hours of wednesday and once again benjamin netanyahu backed up his boast that there really is no one like him in israeli politics zillo very moved that the people of israel put their trust in me again for the fifth time a greater trust even he managed to take enough votes from right wing rivals to gain seats for his likud party without undermining support for his preferred coalition partners personally as well as politically the stakes have never been higher i think the main purpose of that anyhow in these elections are was to get a majority in the parliament in the knesset that will enable a name to make legislation that will give him immunity and protect him form the charges that he is going criminal charges it's going to face

a few months israel's attorney general is due to hold hearings for netanyahu and his lawyers where they can challenge his intention to indict the prime minister in three separate corruption cases it's considered likely however that charges will be brought one of the key questions now is exactly what kind of a price the smaller far right parties might try to extract from that in return for their support especially if they're expected to go to the wire for him to help him defend against the corruption cases he faces and it's a price that could end up costing the palestinians more than anyone in the final days of the campaign netanyahu endorsed the annexation of all israeli settlements in the occupied west bank palestinian politicians fear it's more than intellect. ploy rather a consequential political shift just weeks ahead of the planned publication of the trumpet ministrations peace plan i think the whole goals of the game are changing because now this clearly superimposing greater all of historical palestine.

and therefore they have totally cancelled the imminence they have now left side the two state solution they have totally gaited that requirements of the have totally violated international law and so on so now when the whole new strategy to deal with this. netanyahu stands to make history twice over within months becoming israel's longest serving prime minister and potentially exposed to serve under the strain of indictment for all his opponents talk of its being time for change enough israelis have decided that what they really want is more of the same very force that al-jazeera west jerusalem. and the democratic republic of congo are supporters of the former leader joseph kabila have sacked elections there for governor posts catherine sawyer reports. another election in the democratic republic of congo provisional governors are chosen by parliamentarians. and after what was

president forty eight hours to cancel the gubernatorial election and can charles and his side can you imagine former president kabila controlling the senate and now all the provinces why are we calling ourselves a coalition when others are controlling everything the senators and the boy we are no longer happy with this coalition between the president and former president kabila we don't see why we have to continue now realized he has no power as president of this country. she said kerry has promised to make a break from an eighteen year kabila era that was dogged with accusations of corruption mismanagement of public resources and human rights abuses he also has to deal with suspicions that his victory came through a backroom deal the will preserve could be less influence of important ministries and security forces as well as appoint a prime minister fronted by the former president and his quality sion on elisi

protesters seem determined to continue their rallies until the political establishment is gone for the protesters the government and the interim president all staunch allies of the former president. and should have resigned when he stepped aside the fact they're still in place is fueling concerns the old guard maybe even moving to maintain its influence. as iraq. then israel and president nicolas maduro. says he has reached a deal with the red cross to bring humanitarian aid into the country now do i made the comments during a televised address and when she also accused us vice president mike pence of racism. the u.n. security council to recognize opposition leader as interim president in. going to the vice president of the united states mike pence ridiculous to the security council of the united nations you can understand these are you can see

through make the people here suffer in order for them to turn against the government and if indeed the united states and as we heard earlier the united nations vice president mike pence are they are concerned about the role being of the venezuelans than they would lift those sanctions what the venezuelan government is looking at right now is opening different avenues and different relations with other countries namely russia china and even turkey to help make up for the economic crisis. has been called in large part by those sanctions are trying to essentially circumvent those sanctions by creating new trade agreements with them however with more than fifty percent of the state's cash flow being accessible because of those u.s. imposed sanctions it is difficult to see how they get out of this.
