2014 Indian general election in Chhattisgarh
The 2014 Indian general election in Chhattisgarh was a significant political event held as part of the nationwide elections to select members for the 16th Lok Sabha, India's lower house of Parliament. Conducted in a single phase on April 10, 2014, the election in Chhattisgarh saw a robust participation from an electorate of over 18 million voters. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), led by Chief Minister Raman Singh, sought to retain power amid competition from the Indian National Congress (INC), which aimed to regain influence in a state it had governed previously. The election was marked by issues such as naxalism, development, and tribal welfare, reflecting the region's socio-political dynamics. Ultimately, the BJP emerged victorious, securing 10 of the 11 Lok Sabha seats in the state.
