Background

After the 2002 assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh, no party secured a clear majority. The Bahujan Samaj Party, led by Mayawati, formed a coalition government with the support of the Bharatiya Janata Party[5], the Rashtriya Lok Dal, Akhil Bharatiya Loktantrik Congress, several independents, and smaller allied groups. This broader coalition enabled Mayawati to demonstrate majority support in the Assembly.

Mayawati was sworn in as Chief Minister on 3 May 2002, beginning her third term in office. The coalition ministry included representatives from the BSP, BJP, RLD, and other supporting groups, reflecting a politically diverse alliance formed to secure legislative stability..[5]

The government collapsed in August 2003 after withdrawal of support by the BJP, leading to her resignation.[6]
