INDIA-ELECTION
An Indian woman carries a child past India Gate in New Delhi on May 16, 2014. The leaders of India's defeated Congress party, Sonia and Rahul Gandhi, admitted personal responsibility for the disastrous election results which came after 10 years in power. "We understand that victory and loss is part of democracy," party president Sonia told reporters in New Delhi as preliminary figures showed the Congress heading for its worst ever performance. "We respect this decision. I take responsibility for this defeat," she added, in remarks echoed by her 43-year-old son, who led national campaigning for the first time. The leftist Congress has dominated Indian politics since independence, mostly with a member of the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty at its head. The famous bloodline has provided three prime ministers.
