Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to be sworn in for an impressive a third term on June 9, a spokesman for the National Democratic Alliance told Reuters and BTA, marking an important moment in India's political landscape.

The victory is remarkable, with the Modi-led Bharatiya Janata coalition, the National Democratic Alliance, securing 293 seats in the parliamentary elections. The election dragged on for the past seven weeks, demonstrating the political strength and broad support for Modi's leadership.

The upcoming term places Modi alongside Jawaharlal Nehru, India's revered independence hero and first prime minister, as only the second leader to serve as prime minister for three consecutive terms.

The achievement underscores Modi's enduring popularity and the confidence voted in him by the people of India.
