...widely predicted that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the "Enlightened Hindu Nationalist" party, will gain the most seats of any single party, but not enough to form its own government.

"He's more of a nationalist and is seeking better relations with Iran," notes Zonis. Both Iran and Saudi Arabia are trying to figure out how to increase oil revenues. Experts believe they might strike a deal: Iran would cease all terrorist activity in Saudi Arabia; in exchange, the Saudis would work to raise oil prices...
