This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. Questions 1. What is the current political situation of the Indian National Lok Dal Party? 2. Is there evidence of violence or harassment of Indian National Lok Dal Party members in India? 3. Is there evidence of violence or harassment of Indian National Lok Dal Party members specifically in Chandigarh? 4. Is there any evidence of police collusion in violence against Indian National Lok Dal Party members in Chandigarh? RESPONSE 1. What is the current political situation of the Indian National Lok Dal Party? The Political Handbook of the World: 2005-2006 includes an entry on the INLD that indicates that at the 2004 general election in India, “the INLD won no seats.” The party had broken “with the BJP [Bharatiya Janata Party] shortly before the 2004 general election”. The INLD also “lost control of Haryana at the March 2005 state elections” (Banks, Arthur S., Muller, Thomas C. & Overstreet, William R. (eds) 2006, Political Handbook of the World: 2005-2006, CQ Press, Washington, p. 517 – Attachment 2).

    Background Paper Political Parties in India March 2012 CONTENTS 1. Introduction 2. National Political Parties 3. State Political Parties 1. Introduction In the elections to the 15th Lok Sabha, India‟s directly elected lower house of parliament, held in April-May 2009, candidates came from 1,055 political parties. India‟s two main political parties, the Indian National Congress (INC) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), led coalitions into the general election, the INC leading the United Progressive Alliance (UPA), and the BJP leading the National Democratic Alliance (NDA). A third major coalition named the Third Front, formed mainly of leftist parties including the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)) and the Communist Party of India (CPI), also contested the election. The UPA won 262 seats in the election, the NDA 158 seats, and the Third Front 76 seats. Following the election, the UPA gained the support of ten political parties previously either uncommitted or part of another coalition, and returned to parliament with an overall majority under Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.1 Information is provided below on six national political parties and two state-based political parties that figure significantly in the MRT-RRT caseload. 1 UK Home Office 2011, India Country of Origin Information (COI) Report, 26 August, paragraphs 3.08-3.13 1 2.
