Description

This comprehensive analysis examines the dramatic transformation of India's national parliamentary system since 1989, when the Congress Party's dominance began to erode and minority governments emerged as a defining feature of Indian politics. The book explores how electoral outcomes have shifted from producing predictable single-party majorities to generating fragmented parliaments where coalition-building and cabinet instability have become routine. Through detailed examination of India's evolving party system, the author investigates the political dynamics that led to the rise of multiple parties competing for seats and cabinet positions, fundamentally reshaping how government formation and parliamentary stability operate in the world's largest democracy. This volume offers essential insights into contemporary South Asian political structures and the mechanisms underlying India's transition from dominant-party to multi-party competition.
