Mauritius’s opposition coalition has won the country’s election by a landslide, taking all seats in parliament in a major rejection of the current government.

According to results released in various constituencies across the country throughout Monday, the governing coalition, led by Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth, failed to get any of the 62 seats available for voters to directly decide on.
