Other than 'foreign hands', Opposition’s 'lies' about Constitution are being prominently blamed in review meetings for party’s tally coming down from 303 to 240 seats.
Overseas Friends of BJP-USA has registered itself as the official representative of India's ruling party, under the American government's Foreign Agents Registration Act.

Foreign interference is a far-fetched notion. There is no reason to believe that foreign intelligence agencies are involved in influencing the mandate in India.
However, the absolutely atrocious and partisan reportage on Indian politics by the global mainstream media over the last 10 years is something that even the Modi govt’s worst critics will have to admit.
