2004 in India
In 2004, India experienced a year marked by significant political, social, and economic events that shaped its contemporary landscape. The most notable occurrence was the general elections held in April–May, which resulted in a surprising victory for the Indian National Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA), ending the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) rule at the national level. This victory was attributed to a variety of factors, including discontent over rising prices and social issues. The year also saw continued economic growth, underscored by a robust IT sector and increased foreign investment. On the cultural front, 2004 was notable for the popularity of Bollywood films and the rise of regional cinema, reflecting the diverse tapestry of Indian society.
