Political Parties
Source: ECI
  • 287 political parties contested the 2022 Assembly elections, compared to 303 parties in the 2017 Assembly elections.
  • The huge number of political parties contesting the 2022 elections fueled claims from many factions of the polity and society that these new parties are created as 'fronts' just to help the electoral prospects of specific political parties by cutting into the opposition votes. Their claims were supported by the fact that 274 of the 287 parties secured less than or equal to 0.1% votes individually and only 1.2% votes collectively in the 2022 Assembly elections.
