Samajwadi Party
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is one of India’s leading political parties, known for its cultural nationalism, development-driven agenda, and strong leadership. Founded in 1980, the BJP has grown to become a dominant political force with a wide presence across India. It currently leads the central government and several states under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
1. History of BJP
The BJP was founded in 1980, emerging from the Bharatiya Jana Sangh which was established in 1951 by Dr. Syama Prasad Mukherjee. After the Emergency in 1977, the Jana Sangh merged into the Janata Party but later separated, leading to the formation of the Bharatiya Janata Party.
In its early years, the BJP struggled electorally, winning only two seats in the 1984 Lok Sabha elections. However, it gained momentum in the late 1980s, becoming a significant national force by the 1990s.
2. Key Leaders and Ideology
The BJP's ideological foundation is rooted in Integral Humanism, a philosophy promoted by Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay. This approach balances individual and collective development, while preserving India’s cultural identity.
Key figures in the party's growth include:
Dr. Syama Prasad Mukherjee – Founder of Bharatiya Jana Sangh
Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay – Ideologue and policy thinker
Atal Bihari Vajpayee – Former Prime Minister, known for his leadership and vision
L.K. Advani – Senior leader and key strategist
3. Narendra Modi’s Vision and Achievements
Since 2014, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the BJP has pursued a development-focused and reform-oriented governance model.
Major national campaigns include:
Swachh Bharat Abhiyan
Digital India
Make in India
Ujjwala Yojana
Jan Dhan Yojana
Startup India
Modi's leadership brought two consecutive majority wins in 2014 and 2019 — a rare feat in Indian politics — and significantly expanded the party’s national footprint.
