FILE – In this May 16, 2014 file photo, opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and India's next prime minister Narendra Modi greets the gathering at the home of his 90-year-old mother in Gandhinagar, in the western Indian state of Gujarat. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's party claimed it had won re-election with a commanding lead in vote count Thursday, May 23, 2019. Modi, 68, the leader of the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, has carefully constructed an image of himself as a pious man of the people, a would-be monk called to politics who has elevated India’s status globally and transformed its parliamentary elections from a contest of political parties on social and economic issues into a cult of personality.
