Abstract:

The clear favourite of the parliamentary elections in India, which will be held between 19 April and 1 June this year, is the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP, Indian People’s Party), which has been in power since 2014. The economic growth of recent years, the strengthening of India’s position in the international arena, appeals to Hindu nationalism, and control over the state and media give the BJP a major advantage over the opposition. Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s third term will mean continuity in foreign policy, including engagement with the West, partnership with Russia, and competition with China. The main threats to relations with the EU and the U.S. may come from the further weakening of democracy and minority rights in India.
