Detailed Solution

A government formed by an alliance of two or more political parties when no single party enjoys majority support is called a coalition government. A coalition government consists of an alliance of more than two parties. A coalition government frequently lessens the power of the party with the most seats. The 1989 elections ushered in the era of the coalition government with the defeat of the previously dominant Congress party. Since then, there have been nine governments at the Centre, all of which were coalition governments or minority governments supported by other parties that did not join the government but gave support from outside.
