Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was on track to win his third successive landslide election victory, a television exit poll showed Saturday after voting ended in a six-week nationwide poll.

Modi’s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies were forecast to win at least 355 seats, well above the 272-seat majority needed for India’s lower house of parliament, according to an exit poll by broadcaster CNN-News18.
