2013 Rajasthan Legislative Assembly election
The 2013 Rajasthan Legislative Assembly election was held on December 1, 2013, to elect the 200 members of the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly. This election was significant as it marked a decisive contest between the Indian National Congress (INC) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) following a period of political turbulence. The incumbent Chief Minister, Ashok Gehlot of the INC, sought re-election amidst a backdrop of anti-incumbency sentiment and various regional issues. In a noteworthy outcome, the BJP, led by Vasundhara Raje, secured a landslide victory, winning 163 seats and forming a government. The election was pivotal in shaping the political landscape of Rajasthan and resonated with the broader national elections in India.
