  • Coalition Governments in Jammu and Kashmir with Special Reference to the Alliance of PDP and BJP
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Research ISSN: 2455-2070; Impact Factor: RJIF 5.22 Received: 13-12-2020; Accepted: 27-12-2020; Published: 08-01-2021 www.socialsciencejournal.in Volume 7; Issue 1; 2021; Page No. 28-30 Coalition governments in Jammu and Kashmir with special reference to the alliance of PDP and BJP. Zaheen Ahmed1, Vikas Bhandari2 1 Research Scholar, Department of Humanities and Languages, Rabindranath Tagore University, Raisen, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India 2Assistant Professor, Department of Humanities and Languages, Rabindranath Tagore University, Raisen, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India Abstract Federalism is an instrument of power sharing between independent authorities’ viz. union and state. Coalition government is also a means of power sharing. Logically both federalism and coalition government should be complimentary to each other. As the object of sharing of power is common in both, a student of politics or law may gather the impression that coalition government is always supportive of federal form of government or constitution and sometime also gives more opportunity for expression of ideas and democratic rights to small and regional parties. In this way it seems that coalition government promotes democracy and representative administration. But there are some grey areas also of the coalition politics like sometimes the coalition which are formed after declaration of election which give rise to ‘horse trading’ for the purpose of proving majority on the floor of house of representatives. The paper discusses the development of coalition politics in J&K, and explores some solutions how the grey areas in coalition politics can be minimized. Keywords: BJP, PDP, coalition, J&K, alliance, development Introduction Methodology Jammu and Kashmir state has witnessed five coalition The information for this dissertation has been chiefly governments in since 1947, only the National Conference- collected from the primary and secondary sources which Congress alliance (2009-2015) lasted a full term.
