2004 Indian general election in Delhi
The 2004 Indian general election in Delhi was a significant political event held as part of the nationwide parliamentary elections from April 20 to May 10, 2004. The elections were conducted to select representatives for all seven parliamentary constituencies in the National Capital Territory of Delhi. This election took place against the backdrop of a turbulent political climate, marked by issues such as communal tensions and economic reforms. The Indian National Congress emerged as the dominant party, securing six of the seven seats, while the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) retained only one constituency. The Congress victory was largely attributed to popular support for the United Progressive Alliance and its leader, Sonia Gandhi. The election underscored the rising importance of Delhi as a crucial political battleground in India.
