BJP

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is a major political party in India, founded in 1980. It promotes Hindu nationalism and advocates for conservative social values, economic development, and a strong national defense. The BJP emerged from the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a Hindu nationalist organization. It has become the dominant party in Indian politics, especially since Prime Minister Narendra Modi took office in 2014. The party emphasizes initiatives like digital technology, infrastructure development, and “Make in India.” Its policies and actions often spark debate regarding secularism, minority rights, and economic growth in the diverse Indian society.
