Modi Sworn in for Historic Third Term as India’s Prime Minister
After landing a spacecraft on the moon, championing a Hindu renaissance and leading India’s fast-growing economy, Narendra Modi has been sworn in as Prime Minister for a historic third term in a grand ceremony at the presidential palace in Delhi.
Modi came out on top of the ‘mammoth’ elections that mobilized almost a billion voters.
The leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party took his oath and said he would ‘do right to all manner of people without affection or ill-will’.
BBC reported:
“Mr. Modi’s BJP-led National Democratic Alliance won the general election with 293 seats, a much lower margin than predicted by exit polls.
[…] Thousands of guests have been attending his inauguration at Delhi’s presidential palace.
