"Cracks Emerge in Opposition Alliance Targeting Modi Ahead of India's Elections"

The opposition alliance formed to unseat Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Bharatiya Janata Party is facing internal rifts and ideological clashes, weakening its chances in the upcoming national elections. Led by the Indian National Congress party, the alliance is struggling to find common ground and has been hit by defections, while Modi's popularity has risen following the fulfillment of a Hindu nationalist pledge. The opposition's failure to consolidate and address key issues like rising unemployment has bolstered Modi's prospects for a third consecutive term, despite economic challenges.
