May 2024 558 views 6 Min 13 Sec

Cheering supporters waving saffron flags line the streets of one of India's holiest cities as Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrives to rally votes from the Hindu faithful. India is in the middle of a six-week election widely expected to deliver Modi a third term, in large part due to his cultivated image as an aggressive champion of the country's majority faith. That includes Varanasi, the spiritual capital of the Hindu faith, where devotees from around India come to cremate deceased loved ones by the Ganges River.
