What is the incorrect statement about the initial phase of the BJP?

The BJP experienced significant electoral success in the elections of 1980 and 1984.

In the aftermath of the Emergency, the Bharatiya Jana Sangh merged with the Janata Party. However, following the disintegration of the Janata Party and its subsequent dissolution, former supporters of the Jana Sangh came together to establish the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in 1980. In its initial phase, the BJP adopted a more expansive political agenda compared to the Jana Sangh, even embracing 'Gandhian Socialism' as its guiding principle. However, its electoral performance in the years 1980 and 1984 yielded limited success. Starting from around 1986, the party began to prioritize the Hindu nationalist aspect within its ideology. The BJP pursued a political approach known as 'Hindutva' and strategically mobilized Hindu sentiments.
