Party
Short tenure. This party has under 2 years in power at the Centre, so its points-per-year figure rests on a very small divisor and swings widely. Read the totals and the actions below instead.
Inside a coalition, credit and years are both split by seat share, so a small partner's per-year figure largely mirrors that of the governments it joined. Union governments only; state actions are not included. Figures are AI-assisted evidence points, not a verdict. How points are made.
