Probably the first time in India's history that a coalition which is close to 300 seats is crying and a coalition which is not getting majority is celebrating.

[ajaysheregar]

I don't understand why Congress is celebrating. They only won 99 seats. The BJP has won 243 seats. They are going to form the government.

After birth, how long does it take for the eye to open.
Cows -immediately
Goats -after 2 hours
Cats -after 6 days
Dogs -after 10 days
Hindus -never

[gtamilarasan]

Results are not ready yet. Please wait and see.

[shreeveda]

Stop being biased. Modi ji doesn't have to claim victory. He has won this election officially, alongwith his pre-election coalition partners. Your reporters need training in good journalism.

Ka shmir belongs to Hindus and India, not slves and invders

[desiputtar]

Why do media channels keep on saying that BJP is anti-Muslim?

[manishgurav]

Suddenly nothing is wrong with Indian Democracy

EVMs are functioning properly

Voters aren’t communal but wise and progressive

Opposition has come out of propaganda mode to celebratory mode 🙃🙃🙃

[nehakulkarni]

Why is it called sky news? Change your name to "Moselm appeasement network"

[Ramarao-dqmf]

Christian channel is talking about INDIA..Cjristiam nationalist govts are all around eurpoe.

[divyasatheesh]

The captions are wrong…Indians report this video that captions are wrong !!!

[nehakulkarni]

They'll be no resignation.. Moslsm and anti Hindus can keep dreaming. BJP just has to work twice as harder and not be over confidence. Every vote counts That's all.

[sayantanpoali]

The party is short of majority by about 40 seats....Thats actually good for India because by 2029 this party will be done and dusted😂..

[aryandixit]

Why is the lady so happy? 😂I am not going to defend BJP but foreigners having such strong emotions on another country is kinda weird. It is inappropriate that Hindu organizations are being demonized.

[cfcrkie]

He has lost his party's majority
With 13-15 party 294-272 = 22 Majority of NDA

[Guccit]

It’s definitely going to kick off over there.

[philipeisenberg]

Noh, Mr Modi didn't 'claim'. Improve your English.

[GrandpaVince]

This will hopefully inspire the old apache and sioux tribes to form a coalition
