Get the inside scoop on Modi's election rollercoaster ride from setbacks to celebrations!

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi faced a rollercoaster of events after the recent election verdict. Despite a major setback with his party failing to secure an outright victory, Modi received a boost as a key ally pledged support, leading to discussions on forming a coalition government. This turn of events marked a shift in Modi's political journey, as he navigated the challenges of a reduced mandate and the need for allies to secure his rare third term in office.

The election results stripped Modi of his 'aura of invincibility,' highlighting a stunning blow as his ruling party lost its parliamentary majority. This unexpected turn of events set the stage for a new era of coalition government in India, signaling a shift from strongman rule to collaborative governance. As Modi prepares to take oath for the third time on June 8, the focus remains on his alliances and strategies to address India's pressing issues, including unemployment.

Despite the challenges, Modi's BJP remains a dominant force in Indian politics, with early results showing a reduced majority but still comfortably ahead in the general election vote count. The election outcome surprised many, leading to a reshaping of India's political landscape and the need for Modi to seek alliances to form a stable government for his third term.

In a twist of fate, Modi's victory celebration was tempered by the realization that his party fell short of a landslide win. With more than 642 million votes cast in the world's largest democratic exercise, the election highlighted the unpredictable nature of Indian politics. As Modi prepares to start talks with allies to form the government, the focus shifts to the dynamics of coalition building and governance in the post-election period.
