Abstract:
This article analyses political and economic developments in India during
2025. The year witnessed the BJP’s political consolidation following the
2024 setbacks, cemented by decisive victories in the Delhi and Bihar state
elections. The government projected stability by managing security crises
with strategic dexterity. Economically, while headline GDP growth
remained robust, the outlook was complicated by a trade war with the US
and concerns over data integrity raised by the IMF. Crucially, the
legitimacy of the electoral process became a central conflict; while the
opposition’s «Vote Chori» campaign failed to prove rigging, the Election
Commission’s controversial management of voter rolls deepened the
erosion of democratic trust.
