The correct term for the coming together of two or more political parties to form a government is "The Coalition Government." So, the correct answer is (2) The Coalition Government.
A coalition government is a type of government formed when two or more political parties, often with different ideologies or platforms, come together to collectively govern a country.
In coalition politics the emphasis has shifted towards pragmatic considerations rather than strict ideological positions, leading to political alliances even in the absence of ideological harmony. The dynamics of coalition politics have reshaped the focus of political parties from ideological disparities to cooperative power-sharing arrangements. An illustrative example of this phenomenon is the collaboration between various members of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), who did not share the 'Hindutva' ideology of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Nevertheless, they coalesced to form a government and sustained their authority throughout a complete term. |
