Explanation: Rajiv Gandi's assassination occurred during an election campaign tour in Tamil Nadu and was attributed to a Sri Lankan Tamil associated with the LTTE. He was assassinated in May 1991. In the subsequent 1991 elections, the Congress emerged as the largest individual party. Following Rajiv Gandhi's tragic passing, Narasimha Rao was elected as the Prime Minister by the party. Hindutva literally means ‘Hinduness’ and was defined by its originator, V. D. Savarkar, as the basis of Indian (in his language also Hindu) nationhood. Bhartiya Janata Party declared Narendra Modi (then the Chief Minister of Gujrat) as its Prime Ministerial candidate in September 2013. BJP under the leadership of Narendra Modi got a clear majority in 16th Lok Sabha elections held in 2014. BJP won 282 seats on its own, becoming the first party to gain single party majority after 30 years. Despite single-party majority of its own, BJP did choose to form the NDA government with its coalition partners. Manmohan Singh was the Finance Minister & the Prime Minister was Narsimha Rao, when the New Economic Policy was introduced in India. |
