Trump’s win, marked by a sweep of seven crucial battleground states, defied predictions of a tight race.

 As the US election results signaled a decisive Republican win, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended his warm congratulations to Donald Trump on his re-election. Referring to Trump as “my friend,” PM Modi conveyed his support in a post on X (formerly Twitter), saying, “Heartiest congratulations my friend @realDonaldTrump on your historic election victory.”

PM Modi further expressed his anticipation for strengthening the India-US alliance, adding, “As you build on the successes of your previous term, I look forward to renewing our collaboration to further bolster the India-US Comprehensive Global and Strategic Partnership. Together, let’s work for the betterment of our people and to promote global peace, stability, and prosperity.”

Trump’s win, marked by a sweep of seven crucial battleground states, defied predictions of a tight race. This impressive feat came as a reversal of the 2020 results, where Democrats claimed victory in six of those states.

In his victory address, Trump described it as a “magnificent victory for the American people.” Reflecting on a recent assassination attempt, he remarked, “God spared my life for a reason,” underscoring his renewed commitment to his role as President.
