General Elections were held in India from 5 September to 3 October 1999 a few months after the Kargil War. The 13th Lok Sabha election is of historical importance as it was the first time a united front of parties managed to attain a majority and form a government that lasted a full term of five years thus ending a period of political instability at the national level that had been characterised by three general elections held in as many years.
