Question

what is coalition government?
​

Answer 1

A coalition government is a form of government in which political parties cooperate to form a government. The usual reason for such an arrangement is that no single party has achieved an absolute majority after an election. A coalition government might also be created in a time of national difficulty or crisis (for example, during wartime or economic crisis) to, give a government the high degree of perceived political legitimacy or collective identity, it can also play a role in diminishing internal political strife. In such times, parties have formed all-party coalitions (national unity governments, grand coalitions). If a coalition collapses, a confidence vote is held or a motion of no confidence is taken.

Answer 2

Answer:

A coalition government is a type of government where two or more political  parties join together in parliament/ assembly to run the government and  agree on a policy program.

After the 1989 Lok Sabha Elections, the system  of one party emerging as dominant party came to an end.

Since  then different parties began to come together to form coalition governments.

Both the Bhartiya Janata Party and Congress Party made an experiment of  establishing coalition governments.
