The election results are expected to provide Democrats with significant control in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, according to The Hindu.
The results of the US midterm elections will likely impact the global geopolitical operating environment for India more than they will affect bilateral relations between India and the US, according to The Hindu.
The elections are expected to grant Democrats a large majority in the House of Representatives and a clear advantage in the Senate.
