BBC World Service - BBC OS, Modi wins India election

The Indian Prime Minister's party has secured a landslide general election victory

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has won a landslide general election victory. His Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is set to win a majority of seats in parliament. We get reaction from our reporters around India.

Also, we get the latest on deadly tornadoes that have hit the US state of Missouri.

And we hear about an undercover migrant's extraordinary journey across the Sahara, where he uncovered extortion, slavery and death with his ‘secret spectacles’.
