Indian general election, 1952 (Fascist Coup Britain)

The 1952 General election was won by the INC who made a net gain of 18 seats.

Background
Since the 1948 election the INC had governed as a minority party and the 1952 election was the first election not brought about by the fall of a government. The most notable change on the political scene was the dissolution of the European's Party which was replaced by the Liberal Party, which as well as representing European Interests also aimed to appeal to the wider Indian electorate.

Results
Following the election the INC minority was ably to continue with supports from the Left wing parties, all of whom gained seats. Whilst the Liberal Party managed to win every European seat, it failed to expand its support base to the wider Indian electorate.
