Detailed Solution

The 1990s marked the beginning of Coalition Governments in India.
Multiple political parties form a coalition government, which frequently dilutes the influence of the party with the largest number of seats. The initial coalition government of Morarji Desai lasted 857 days (between March 1977 and June 1979). The first coalition administration to finish its full term in India was the National Democratic Alliance led by Atal Bihari Vajpayee from 1999 to 2004. Coalition government presented its own difficulties, such as unstable governments, the creation of a culture of defections, and heightened antagonism between the centre and the states.
