@Kalpesh Manna 2002 What are you saying in this edit summary? [1] I suggest you read the article Maha Vikas Aghadi before responding here. Venkat TL (talk) 11:12, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What was UPA and does it still exist?

[edit]

I have a long-standing feeling that the Wikiverse idea of UPA diverges heavily from whatever existed in the real world, that many Wiki editors instinctly wish that Indian politics can be categorized into simple boxes (that all politics in recemt years could be reduced to 'NDA vs UPA' for example). I think this article is a WP:OR minefield and that a few critical questions need to be asked:

All in all, whilst UPA continues as a conceptual alliance, I think we don't have any well-referenced membership list of the coalition (I'd say membership is fluid), and that the alliance doesn't apply beyond national politics. The sole mention of UPA government in Jharkhand appears as an exception, not the rule. There seems to be no state-level structures of UPA, and no real seat-sharing even in Lok Sabha elections coordinated through UPA. I think this article needs strong weeding of WP:OR elements (such as the listing of UPA state governments, or precise listing of numbers of parliamentarians). I seriously question statements such as 'The UPA currently rules six states of India' or that UPA would hold 1,119 seats in state legislatures. -- Soman (talk) 18:28, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
