Hindu nationalist Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowed to build an inclusive India after scoring a landslide election win that he hailed as the “biggest event in world democracy”.

More than 600 million people voted in the marathon six-week contest.Tthe election for India’s lower house of parliament was the largest vote the world had seen.
