Elected Prime Minister
In June 2013, Modi was selected to head the BJPs 2014 election campaign to the Lok Sabha (the lower house of Indias parliament), while a grassroots campaign was already in place to elect him prime minister. Modi campaigned hard, portraying himself as a pragmatic candidate capable of turning around Indias economy. In May 2014, he and his party were victorious, taking 282 of the 534 seats in the Lok Sabha. The victory marked a crushing defeat to the Indian National Congress, which had controlled Indian politics for most of the previous 60 years, and sent a message that Indias citizens were behind an agenda of radical change.
