Abstract
‘Watershed’, ‘historic’ ‘epochal’ were used to describe India’s 2014 General Elections. The Bharatiya Janata Party secured the first single party majority in three decades, forming the Government, as the National Democratic Alliance. We argue that the sixteenth Lok Sabha elections and its aftermath constitute a re-alignment, not a clean break with the past, and that this is confirmed by the 2019 General Elections.
