BJP Government in India List: The BJP's origin lies in the Bharatiya Jana Sangh which is formed in 1951 by Shyama Prasad Mukherjee. After the state of emergency in 1977, the Jana Sangh merged with several other parties to form the Janata Party. It defeated the incumbent congress party in the 1977 general election. After three years in power, the Janata party dissolved in 1980 with the members of the erstwhile Jana Sangh reconvening to form BJP party.
Following victories in several state elections and better performances in national elections, Bhartiya Janata Part (BJP) became the largest party in the parliament in 1996. However it lacked a majority in the lower house of parliament and its government under leadership of Atal Bihari Vajpayee lasted only 13 days. Now BJP is ruling in 19 states of India independently with full majority and ruling in 4 Indian states and one union territory with support of its alliance parties. Recently BJP has won Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan assembly general election which were held on 25 November 2023. Check full list of BJP ruling states in India 2024 & opposition parties.
