1998 Indian general election in Delhi
The 1998 Indian general election, held in April and May, marked a significant chapter in India's democratic history, particularly in the National Capital Territory of Delhi. This election was part of the 12th Lok Sabha elections, where voters in Delhi participated to elect their representatives to the lower house of Parliament. The election was characterized by a multi-party contest, with major political parties including the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Indian National Congress, and the Samajwadi Party vying for power. The BJP, under the leadership of Atal Bihari Vajpayee, emerged as the dominant force, securing a considerable number of seats in the capital. The electoral outcome reflected shifting political dynamics, with issues such as development, security, and communal tensions influencing voter sentiment.
