We have early results from the recent vote in the South Asian country of India. It looks like the nation's incumbent1 Prime Minister Narendra Modi has won a landslide2 victory. The country of 1.3 billion people started voting in seven stages in early April and the election wrapped up on May 19th. For Prime Minister Modi to stay in his job, his political party and its allies needed to win at least 272 seats in India's lower house of parliament.

Early results indicated the alliance had won 350. The leader of India's main opposition3 party has conceded defeat and Modi can expect another five year term as India's leader. Over the next few days, meetings will be held to further organize the government. Modi will be officially nominated along with other government leaders and he's likely to take the oath of office before the month is over. What challenges lie ahead? India's unemployment rate is more than 6 percent, that's the highest it's been in decades. There's also been a crisis in the country's farm industry. Farmers have been protesting for months in hopes of getting better prices for their crops and help from the government in an ongoing4 drought that's effected more than 40 percent of the country. Still, India's economy has continued growing. And in his victory speech, Prime Minister Modi dedicated5 the win to the people of India.
