2017 Gujarat Legislative Assembly election

The 2017 Gujarat Legislative Assembly election was held in two phases on December 9 and December 14, 2017, to elect 182 members of the Gujarat Legislative Assembly. This election was significant as it marked a critical test for the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), led by Chief Minister Vijay Rupani, in a state where it had maintained a stronghold for over two decades. The election saw the opposition Congress party, rejuvenated under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi, striving to reclaim power amid a backdrop of social and economic challenges, including agrarian distress and unemployment. The results, announced on December 18, showcased the BJP's resilience, as it secured 99 seats against Congress's 77, reflecting a complex electoral landscape characterized by caste politics and local issues.
