regional party
A regional party is a political organization that primarily operates within a specific geographic area, such as a particular state or region, rather than across the entire country. These parties focus on issues, culture, and development relevant to their locality, aiming to represent the interests of people in that particular area. They often play a significant role in regional politics and may influence national policies, especially if they are influential within their region. Examples include parties like the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal or the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) in Tamil Nadu.
