it is very different to the 2014 there was an incumbent united progressive alliance government led by the indian national congress that was mired in corruption scandals the main one was the 3 g. scandal the way that licenses had been offered to various telecommunications companies the band with whether there was any sort of underhand dealings that i think the public got very sick of this whole issue of corruption that was the ticket on which new entry modi came into government on that he was going to corruption out what we've seen in the next 5 years up to 29 teens vote has been an issue of communal politics a very low level communal politics infrastructure promises that haven't been kept and also divisiveness of the rhetoric about the capability and the professionalism of politicians within government and what we've actually seen and heard is that people wanted to see what progress have the b j p made in that time well. i would say that yes i have completed infrastructure projects i have kept my promises to cut corruption down many of supporters have followed but it's also maintained

last election there so ill. 2014 there was a great deal of apathy about the incumbent united progressive alliance led by the congress party and the prime minister. now what actually happened was there was huge issues of corruption. huge issues over the incumbency. there not really been able to act against pakistan where there was aggression on that side and the corruption that india was seeing in terms of contracts being awarded the big scandal case was the 3 g. . and a case which seemed to really infuriate people where contracts were given to you might see associates and friends of the congress party the way that happened was. promising that he would clean up politics he would get rid of corruption he would bring in a fairer system and of course we haven't quite seen that same sort of wave when we've spoken to people across the country during this election they've been very guarded about what they believe is the right direction something prime minister modi has done the right thing you know. quite a strong policy with the b j p and there's a lot of strong support for that others believe that hea

so out it can be a progressive alliance, that is something the greens can support but it must have a macron is discussing with sanchez but in the end, in the european parliament, if you only look at the greens, socialists and liberals, they don't have the majority. so there will have to be talks with the christian democrats, whether we like it or not, they will be needed for a majority and that's why i think it's much more important to talk about the topics and where we think change coming to europe is more crucial than only talking about the numbers and the people. but donald tusk would disagree, he would say it's not just donald tusk would disagree, he would say it's notjust about donald tusk would disagree, he would say it's not just about the direction of europe, it's about balancing things between bigger and smaller countries, about gender equality, he has to take into account a whole range of issues that you will not be considering an parliament. now, but to be frank, we asa parliament. now, but to be frank, we as a european parliament according to the treaties, we elect the co

general feeling that modi would do well there and there was an apathy about the incumbent united progressive alliance led by the congress party but nobody really suspected but the bigger people with an absolute majority in 2019 it's very different certainly the trends that are coming out officially from the election commission tend to indicate at this moment in time that b.g.p. party led by the will will get another salute majority to that. securely in terms of their next electoral win what we are seeing though is that in states for example huge states that struggles the north of india as many as 80 m.p.'s the largest number of m.p.'s to the lok sabha the indian parliament the b.g.p. have lost seats from there they lost seats periodically from across a huge swathe of northern india in different states one or 2 here and there which is dented that you might see the perfect image of that b j p within 2014 to counter that what we have seen is the b j p s hard campaigning in states such as west bengal over to the east they seem to be doing very well there. 11 seats they are leading into the moment biting

the united progressive alliance led by the congress party would do so badly so we cautiously look at what the indian media are saying but also we have to understand that in the last 5 years the media themselves are owned by big conglomerates and they themselves have allegiances and alliances with these political parties and with the political personalities in the indian mainstream and so therefore some of their biases have been coming out over the last 5 years to criticism from the international audience from human rights groups from the international media groups themselves and it's been well documented through analysts and through academics that the media in india has not been as robust and has not been as fair as it should have been when taking politicians to task over their record the prime minister here no dramatic hasn't given the press coverage has given a press conference but it's a. taken any questions from journalists only a few days ago he sat next to his president of the b j p never said a word on the other hand from the indian national congress pointed this out to the me
