Narendra Modi Sworn In for Third Term as Indian Prime Minister
--------------------------------------------------------------

Narendra Modi has been sworn in as India's prime minister for a third
term. In a stunning upset, Modi's Hindu nationalist BJP lost its
parliamentary majority in the recent election, forcing it to form a new
coalition government. Modi becomes the first Indian leader since
Jawaharlal Nehru to win three straight terms as prime minister.
