He came to the polling station in an open jeep after a visit with his 97-year-old mother. Outside the polling station, he held a shorter speech about the heart issues of security and anti-terrorism.

is expected to be re-elected as prime minister in may when the election ends. He is the business man with the ambition to create a new modern India. Modi and the BJP-the government has implemented an expansion of the much neglected infrastructure and introduced a uniform vat rate. India has got better self-confidence and a more important role on the international stage.
