Take, for instance, the case of Jammu &amp; Kashmir. Who would&#8217;ve thought two parties as different as Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Jammu and Kashmir People&#8217;s Democratic Party (PDP) would join hands to form a government? Well, certainly nobody before 2016. But, BJP ended up extending its support to PDP, and the alliance lasted for over two years. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It is, as they say, nothing is impossible when it comes to politics. The sphere keeps on changing, with alliances forging and breaking every day. The recent years have been no exception. Want to find out more? Read on. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>States and their governments<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Collecting and winning votes is a game of pleasing. And certainly, that&#8217;s no easy task. That is precisely why you&#8217;ll rarely see a single party attaining an absolute majority in the country. The end result is- alliances and coalitions. Sometimes even between parties that share no mutual ideologies. In a few other cases, the unexpected ruling comes into power, take BJP in Meghalaya, for instance. The party only had two states in the assembly elections but managed to bring it under NDA&#8217;s ruling by joining hands with National People&#8217;s Party (NPP).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Multiple other states are being governed by alliances and coalitions.
