Washington: Lauding the people of India and the fairness and integrity of the elections in the world’s largest democracy, the US has said it will work with whoever is the victor in  the polls.

“I would say from the US perspective, we are very confident in the fairness and the integrity of the Indian elections, and we will obviously work with whoever is the victor and whatever the outcome is there,” State Department spokesperson Morgan Ortagus told reporters. Unlike other countries, the US does not send its election observers to India because of the strong independent credentials of the Election Commission of India.
