modi is predicting. the third place where i see movement in india is repairing relations with the neighbors. they seem to be afraid at the moment. we are seeing situations where every country in the region is going to elections. so calming down post political rhetoric on all sides, then perhaps india will move in the region. there are a lot of trade deals that have been left pending in the last tenure of the government. those would be a priority the one with the u.k. or the postal election. the one with canada has been put on pause because of the problem they are having over allegations india inns involves, and in the. there is the deal with australia. a lot of those have to be put in place. the free trade agreement, a lot needs to be put in place faster because our step is now in place. finally, i think it will be about projecting india in the world will be watching in terms of its own relationship with the staff staff we -- >> you have thousands of soldiers, thanks, aircraft, artillery, toe to toe on t

narendra modi will keep his job as prime minister. but the intractable leader, well, he now depends on other parties to back him up. actually, arunoday, you broke down the numbers. let's take a look. the world's largest democratic exercise. elections in a country of 1.4 billion, done and dusted. here's everything you need to know about the results. the bjp won the most number of seats, 240, but it's still not the victory narendra modi was hoping for. he has 63 less seats than what the bjp won in the last election, and less than 272 that is needed to have a majority, which means he is not the final word on politics or policy, and will have to rely on unpredictable alliance partners and establish a consensus. other things didn't go as anticipated. the state which was supposed to stand by the bjp didn't. uttar pradesh, which sends 80 lawmakers to the parliament, the maximum, is the state where the bjp suffered heavy losses. from a tally of 62, it is now down to 33. the bjp alliance may be forming the government, but the growth in the opp

margin for the bjp as well as modi shrinking as we speak.is it's not what the market anticipated, hence we are seeing reaction in the market. if you look at the an fte, it surged more than 3% yesterday, the biggest in about three years. today, we are seeing it down by almost 3%, so giving up pretty much all the gains which it had yesterday. disappointment obviously if this line continues throughout the day. we will get official numbers in the hours ahead. we will mill the trends in the hours ahead, but right now, disappointment pretty much across the board. tom: as you scrutinize the vote count that comes through after this six-week election in india, which states are you looking out for in particular? haslinda: there's several states in focus. the home state of modi himself, in particular, look at the last election in 2019. the bjp party secured all 26 seats. the other one is the most populous state in the country. 80 seats up for grabs. the bjp secured 62. if you want to win this election, it is important that you win this province. also,

modi guarantee, will he deliver on that?> the first fact is that they went to the election with the modi guaranty saying that they would provide a range of benefits to the citizens in terms of greater productive efficiency, and also in terms of learning. haslinda: but he wouldn't see the numbers that he's seeing right now. >> but election is not merely a function of growth. it's a function of several other issues, including emotions, including your ability to mobilize many other reasons. i said that the challenge was one of jobs. that challenge is one of moon knight. the challenge is one of improving the health outcomes. there's also a challenge of much greater sustainable urbanization in india. the more you focus on agriculture it's important to understand agriculture will not create quality jobs. you need to focus on good manufacturing and sectors like textiles, tourism, food processing, many of these areas will be in a large number of jobs, and that is critical for india. haslinda: what's also critical is investments. we

sui victory, what went wrong for modi and his party? so i think when we have _ modi and his party?, you know, we will be able to properly what went wrong. but if you look at some of the key constituencies, i think one of the biggest stories for me is ayodhya, the city in which prime minister modi inaugurated a grand hindu temple injanuary. it sits on a site that was for decades disputed between hindus and muslims before it was handed over that hindus by a court decision. so it was a controversial site. this opening of the temple was expected to dominate the election, it was expected to galvanise hindu votes for prime minister modi — and it's in that constituency that the bjp has lost with a huge margin. so clearly using the hindu card, it doesn't seem to have worked in a lot of places. 0ther it doesn't seem to have worked in a lot of places. other than that, when we were on the ground talking to people, a lot of people, especially young people told us that unemployment is a big issue for them and they didn't believe that mr modi had done enough to resolve that. 50 that mr modi had

narendra modi... an oath that narendra modi is more than familiar with.ed territory. a weakened prime minister, dependent on a coalition for the first time. there are hundreds of pictures of mr modi all over delhi today, and it's something we've gotten used to here in india over these past ten years. his picture's been on welfare schemes, on vaccine certificates, so that doesn't seem to have changed. but what has is that while this is a win, it's a victory that feels like a defeat for brand modi. the aura of invincibility that has come to surround him has been damaged. and clues to why some voters turned away can be found here in the politically crucial state of uttar pradesh. it was considered to be a stronghold of mr modi's bjp, but it delivered the biggest shock. in a predominantly hindu village in muzaffarnagar, we met men who've traditionally supported the bjp. but not this time, says shyam singh, who has four post—graduate sons who are unemployed. translation: since four years, they have been - searching forjobs, but there are no vacancies. the gove

mr modi is now beginning an historic third term.ition do to change modi's political direction? i think time will tell what kind of a prime minister he turns out to be in the third term, but... he's talking about consensus. well, we'll have to see. it's too early. we haven't even convened parliament yet. let's see what happens. but i think the numbers in the opposition are such that the, you know, single—handed decision making — no discussions, no debates, no deliberations — that can't go on. this will be a different parliament. the numbers are stacked up pretty much evenly — it's not one—sided — and more than that, i think the vigour and the energy in the opposition ranks has really come forward, and that will change many of the political landscapes from what we've seen in the last few years. well, let's talk about a key element of the modi vision, and that is the so—called hindutva vision — that is essentially making india a majoritarian hindu state with various different legal constitutional changes. are you in a position now, in

modi's character. i was able to talk with them and see there is a program called a conversation from the heart, it has 230 million listeners, and mr. modi comes there every month. he directly talks to the people in a relatively long radio program and goes between different jobs. sometimes it is called that he does these things, now regardless of whether these things are good or bad, but they have a good effect on the masses of people, and modi has used this issue well , so a personal dimension. mr. modi is another matter the common problem is hinduism or hindutva ideology . however, over the past few decades, relatively, this ideology and this idea has been able to bring the mass of hindu people together with this definition and with this discourse that returning to hindu values ​​will bring you unity. it makes you progress, it solves problems , so india is one step ahead. it is bipartisanship that has been relatively responsible for this party in these few decades, and the last issue that can be said

in modi since -- can modi go the distance?-- sudhi: that is the million-dollar question, and the opposition came back with much larger numbers, and, therefore, india will see a more robust democracy, and more discussions in the parliament. at least that is what we can expect. and whether the prime minister can carry on with his partners, one quick thing to mention, two tickets the prime minister -- two decades the prime minister has been leading a state or as prime minister, and he has never had to govern with pressures from the government, so that is one of the questions everybody is asking. what next? paul: our government reporter in new delhi, thank you. the dramatic market swings we have seen out of the indian election results this week have investors debating whether this uncertainty presents a buying opportunity. the hbc officer joe little gave us his opinion earlier. >> election uncertainty has been a long-term buying opportunity, particularly for contrarians who can take advantage of prices. my concern is that we have

the most important change under the modi - change under the modi government wasjust the change underment was just the energy and flamboyance of india's diplomatic activity all around the world. but also, modi using foreign policy as a tool for shoring up his demand within the electorate, so to say. but first of all, the first major thing over here is that elections have reaffirmed the brand of indian democracy, as you yourself in your report suggested. so the indian democracy and that sense, especially in the last ten years, was under siege, at least in perceptions under the west and everywhere else in the world. so that reaffirms that the indian democracy is widespread and robust. as far as great powers are confirmed, great issues like the ukraine crisis for that matter, i don't think congress or the bjp would've made a different choice. you know, russia is an important player for india, choice. you know, russia is an important playerfor india, and ukraine isjust too important playerfor india, and ukraine is just too far. and lastly, american interests, vis—a—vis china, would remain

modi's party is struggling at this moment to on a stand alone basis to claim majority.contrast to the standalone performance minus allies compared to 2019 where the party won -- sorry, in 2019, the bjp won 303 seats on its own. in 2014, it won 282 seats on its own. crossing the halfway mark without the support of allies. currently, they are leading in between 235 to 240 seats in that range. it is turning into a struggle to go past the halfway mark on its own. it may need its allies or alliance support to go past that mark may, in capital letters, if i can highlight that if that were to happen, modi's alliance comes in with a majority, he would still come back to power and come back for a third term what would be important is how he doubles down on economic reforms. the first 100 years will be critical in his tenure and term as prime minister for the third time in india. not just land reforms, but also in terms of opening up more sectors for fdi and menthen in july, you have the budget with the effort made by the anllianc to bring up the prospect to course correct and re

a date has been set for the swearing in of narendra modi as the head of the new coalition governmentis bjp party lost its majority in parliament in recent elections and will have to govern with other partners. that will have an impact on the shape of economic policies he is able to implement, as archana shukla in mumbai explains. the shock element from the election results is slowly subsiding in india's financial markets, but it is expected to remain volatile in the short term. on wednesday, both the key benchmark indices, the sensex and nifty, recovered some bit, but investors are watching the changed political landscape and the health of the coalition government that comes to power. so while mr modi, under whose tenure the benchmark indices have almost tripled in value, is on course to get the historic third term as prime minister, this one will be much different without a clear majority. mr modi, as prime minister, will need consensus from the coalition partners to pass legislation and that could delay some of the tougher ones, like the long pending agricultural reforms or the lan

a more flexible approach — india holds its first session of parliament since prime minister modi wase—elected with a reduced majority. welcome to business today, i'm sally bundock. we start with something we're onlyjust getting a taste of here in the uk this summer — and that is heat. yellow heat health alerts are in place for most of england this week, as daytime temperatures look set to reach 30 degrees celsius. significant, but cool in comparison to many parts of the world, which are currently sweltering under above average temperatures. in the us more than 100 million people were under heat warnings on sunday, with cities on the east coast bracing for record—breaking temperatures as what's called a heat dome is causing the dangerous conditions to expand. in south—eastern europe temperatures of a0 degrees celsius have caused power cuts in tourist hotspots like croatia, impacting all sorts — such as traffic lights failing. and as you've just been hearing, in saudi arabia at least 1,301 people died during this year's hajj pilgrimage to mecca — the most devastating example of the imp

so prime minister modi _ for a third term? so prime minister modi has - for a third term? for a third term? so prime i minister modi has only known for a third term? so prime - minister modi has only known a great amount of political centralisation, he is by far the most popular leader in india, even after this electoral outcome. and so the policies will be arranged around consolidating power in various ways. populist policies, more popular policies, more popular policies, there was a lot of economic stress that came up as a major political issue. this time in the election he will look to address that with welfare policies. he is going to look for one or two big bangs that could help consolidate the population in his favour. there are certain policy issues on citizenship, on reforming civil codes, hindus and muslims, i think he looked back quickly on some of these. �*, , these. it's his third term in office but _ these. it's his third term in office but this _ these. it's his third term in office but this time - these. it's his third term in office but this time around | t

modi's party gained majority.at was a stunning result by itself and actually encapsulated what had happened in the election. >> a decade of modi's role has been defined in part by violence on religious minorities and a crackdown on civil society, the opposition, and press freedom. a coalition government could force modi to rein it in. >> mr. modi is now a much weaker leader, but weaker prime minister depending on coalition partners. we will definitely see some of these institutions rediscover their voice and their conscience and start saying things which we have not heard from them for the last week. >> today, the partnership between our countries is as strong as it has ever been. >> but modi has also helped make india indispensable to u.s. plans in asia. as the indian military defense indian territory from chinese soldiers and the u.s. hopes for india's help to confront china. >> the u.s. hopes to continue to work with india because of the china problem. >> and so u.s.-modi cooperation will continue, but the men

they see modi is pro-business with a good track record on the economy. and they loved the idea of a strong leader that they are short developing country needs to prosper but they are wrong the country that first broke out of the ranks of the developing world and became a rich country, was post-world war ii, japan it did so under a series of colorless prime minister's to other economies that had breakneck growth over the last six decades greater than even china with that long run, are south korea and taiwan. for most of that time, they have also had blend leaders who just muddle through india's own seismic economic reforms took place under a coalition government headed by an unknown prime minister, narrow somehow row, who only got the job because the congress party leader rajiv guy county had been assassinated. the prior bjp leader at el bihari vajpayee, who presided over a strong growth, also headed a coalition in fact, since 1989 coalition governments have been the norm in india. one to which it appears to be returning average income growth under the la
