Prime Minister Narendra Modi took oath for his third term on June 9, 2024, leading a coalition government after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) fell short of an absolute majority in the elections. The ceremony was held at Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi and was attended by various heads of state from neighboring countries and Indian industrialists. Modi's previous terms were marked by authoritarian tendencies, but his dependence on coalition partners may force him to engage in consensus politics for the first time. The opposition INDIA alliance, led by the Congress party, has called the election a mandate against Modi's government.
Modi visited Mahatma Gandhi's memorial and paid homage before his swearing-in ceremony. He thanked voters for their mandate and pledged to eradicate corruption and poverty. The prime minister also emphasized religious equality, addressing criticism of hate speech against India's Muslim minority during the election campaign.
The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) won 293 seats in the general election, while the opposition INDIA alliance secured 234 seats. The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and Janata Dal (United) JD(U), key allies of the NDA, helped it cross the required threshold to form a government.
The coalition government forced Modi to turn to diverse set of partners, leading him to pitch himself as a modest administrator. The election results marked a significant shift in India's political landscape and may bring about changes in governance.
