NEW DELHI - Voters in north India lined up early on Sunday to cast their ballots in the second-to-last round of a seven-phase general election, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi facing a diverse group of opposition parties seeking to deny him a second term.
But opposition parties have recently taken heart at what they see as signs Modi’s Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party may be losing ground and have begun negotiations over a post-election alliance even before polling ends on May 19. Votes will be counted on May 23. A new good and services tax , as well as Modi’s shock ban on all high-value currency notes in 2016, hurt small and medium businesses.
“I have voted for Modi’s sound foreign policy and national security,” said a 36-year old first-time voter who declined to be identified. Political analysts say state-based and caste-driven parties could be decisive in determining the make-up of the next government.
