How do British Indians view India’s 2024 general election?

Almost a billion people will head to the polls over the next six weeks in the world’s biggest general election.

The economy, startups, paid maternity, and the rights of minorities are some of the key issues being debated in a campaign dominated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party and the opposition coalition fronted by Rahul Gandhi.

In the UK, a Channel 4 News survey of 500 people tests how British Indians feel about politics in their ancestral homeland.

BRICS Summit 2025: India Leads Global South In Slamming Trump’s Tariffs, Demanding Fair World Order

BRICS Summit 2025: India takes center stage at the BRICS 2025 Summit in Rio de Janeiro as Prime Minister Narendra Modi leads a powerful charge from the Global South against Trump’s aggressive tariff policy. With 10 nations participating—including new member Indonesia—this year’s summit focuses on fair global governance, climate action, and reforming outdated world institutions like the UN, WTO, and World Bank. As the world’s fastest-growing major economy, India is pushing for a more equitable trade system and calling for collective resistance against economic coercion. Modi’s leadership is not only uniting BRICS but also redefining it—asserting India as the democratic anchor of a bloc once overshadowed by China. India’s role in the New Development Bank and its calls for tech cooperation, sustainable development, and regional peace underscore its rising influence in shaping a new world order. #ModiLeadsBRICS #IndiaBRICS2025 #GlobalSouth #ModiVsTrump #TrumpTariffs #BRICSvsG7 #ModiDiplomacy #IndiaGeopolitics #BRICSSummit #UNReform #WTOReform #NewWorldOrder #IndiaForClimate #ModiInRio #SouthSouthCooperation #BRICSLeadership #IndiaGlobalVoice #ModiTakesLead #BRICSPower #ModiGlobalChampion #BRICSSummit2025 ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.124~
