The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is a significant political party in India, established in 1980. It emerged from the Bharatiya Jana Sangh (BJS), which itself was formed in 1951 by Syama Prasad Mukherjee. The BJP advocates for Hindu nationalism and follows a right-wing political ideology, with close ideological and organizational links to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). It has dominated the Indian political landscape in the 21st century under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, championing economic liberalisation, foreign investment, and infrastructural development. However, the party's policy initiatives have often been subject to controversy due to their profound socio-cultural implications.
