Talk about enthusiasm

As the clock struck 8 in the morning today, the whole nation was hooked to their television screens keenly watching news channels as they telecast trends of Lok Sabha Elections 2019. But the frenzy isn't just limited to India, it has crossed boundaries and the election fever has equally gripped NRI's living abroad. So much so that people organised election watch parties at many places to watch the Lok Sabha elections results.

Ramesh Noone is an IT professional and a staunch supporter of Narendra Modi. A resident of Minneapolis, Minnesota state, Noone made an overnight booking in a theatre complex to watch results of Lok Sabha elections 2019. According to reports, it's being called America’s first cinema-hall watch party for an Indian election.

Noone had priced the tickets at $15 per person and had advertised by distributed flyers to people.

Election results watch parties have been organised in many places in the US like Texas, Illinois, Massachusetts, Florida, Washington DC, Virginia, California and other states where Indians are in majority.

Right from the beginning, BJP was ahead in vote counts and even though votes of many constituencies are yet to be counted, it's clear from the results so far that it's a landslide victory for Narendra Modi who was confident for a second term.
