Indian PM Modi claims victory for his alliance despite BJP losing majority

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi has claimed victory in India's mammoth general election.
Modi declared the results a 'victory for democracy', despite result indicating his party the BJP, will lose its outright majority.

The Indian government has failed to give visas to Al Jazeera’s correspondents to cover this story. So, we're reporting on this election from outside the country.

This is a very funny election

1) BJP is celebrating because they are forming Government.

2) Congress is celebrating because they are crossing 100 seats

3) SP, RJD are celebrating because they got their support back

4) NCP-SP and SS- UBT happy because they showed all that they are boss.

5) TMC is happy because they saved their party from failing

6) Citizens are happy that the whichever Party

they are following are happy. Never before seen Congress and BJP both celebrating wins together in their Head quarters

And Most Commission is Nobody is putting allegations of EVM Manipulations now

BJP lost in Ayodhya where Ram temple was built. What could be a bigger failure than that?

[NoExpertHere]

Burnol sell in Ayodhya on rise. 😂
The way Congress cameback and ate 50+ seats of BJP was satisfying to witness. Half of India rejected Modi Magic. Glad Democracy Won.

[jamsheerk.k]

Modi and bond janatha party will be on power but cant do the same arrogance to the people of india.

[emsworthcastle]

So EVMs are working properly...right. Pappu Party??😅😅😅

[forestshade]

BJP got more seats than whole of Congress alliance of 40 parties. Yet he has 'claimed' victory.... AJ's day isnt worth if it dosnt reach a new low day after day.

[adityaparihar]

But now al jazeera have to apologize to cite him as a dictator, dictator never lose so al jazeera is going to apologize. ? This is the question

[JayantKalla]

Whatever you say.... Power is with him and will remain

[JaiSahu-cfmw]

Modi is hoping to be PM, but the road is too tough this time. Millions of deprived, sufferers of inflation, job less people on ground have decimated communal politics of BJP leaders.

[henaimtiyaz]

India's power lies in its diversity which the people of India have clearly asserted through their rights. A campaign majorly based on communal divide has been rejected by majority of the Indian voters. Democratic values upheld. Proud to be an Indian!

Chai wala making tea party real quick to make his NDA partners stay with him 😂

[angel_pari]

Modi seems undefeated .
Wow, congrats him for becoming pm for the third term. .

[manishgurav]

Till yesterday,
- There was dictatorship in India.
- EVM could be hacked.
- Election Commission was compromised.

Today,
- Democracy is back.
- EVMs are faultless.
- Election Commission honesty can't be doubted.

Justice for NEET aspirants in India please 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

[evehawasinare]

The reporting is a bit biased against BJP.
BJP has enough majority to government. It is rare for a PM to win a third time. Yet you do not mention this unique achievement.

[Rrrrr-xy]

Imagine india alliance . Inspite of having all the alliance they still lost.

[hajipasha]

Indian people have given a verdict that will be remembered for a very long time in Indian politics.
They have given BJP and partners a victory that feels like a defeat.
They have given the Congress alliance a defeat, that feels like a Victory
*BEST one•

THE GREATNESS OF OUR DEMOCRACY & INDIAN CONSTITUTION

WE WILL NEVER ALLOW HATE-RATE & COMMUNALISM POLITICS

WE ARE ALL ONE WE ARE INDIAN 🇮🇳
