Indian prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrates with Defense Minister Rajnath Singh on result day at the Bharatiya Janta Party headquarters, in New Delhi, India, Tuesday, June 4, 2024. Wednesday's shock election results showed that Modi’s party had fallen short of the 272 majority mark needed to form the government on their own, bagging 240 seats. Instead, Modi now needs his coalition National Democratic Alliance, which won the majority of 292 contests, to retain his grip over the world’s most populous nation. (AP Photo/Manish Swarup)
