Indian PM confident of poll victory
India’s Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee flashed a “V” sign for victory as he voted in today’s round of parliamentary elections and expressed confidence he would be returned to office for another five years, despite predictions his coalition might lose seats.
Some of the country’s most violent regions were voting today, the fourth of five phases in the three-week elections, and one man was killed in a grenade explosion in Jammu-Kashmir.
