Several overseas friends of the party from 15 countries, including the US, Australia, Germany, and the UK, were also invited.
Riding high on the planks of muscular nationalism and anti-Congressism, BJP, which had won 282 seats in 2014, improved its tally by notching up 303 seats. Along with its NDA allies, the number swelled to 353 in the 543-member Lower House of the Parliament. (ANI)
