'''General elections''' were held in [[India]] in 1984 soon after the assassination of previous [[Prime Minister of India|Prime Minister]], [[Indira Gandhi]], though the vote in [[Assam]] and [[Punjab (India)|Punjab]] was delayed until 1985 due to ongoing fighting.<br />
<br />
The election was a landslide victory for the [[Indian National Congress]] of [[Rajiv Gandhi]] (son of Indira Gandhi), which won 404 of the 514 seats elected in 1984 and a further 10 in the delayed elections. The [[Telugu Desam Party]] of [[N. T. Rama Rao]], a regional political party from the southern state of [[Andhra Pradesh]], was the second-largest party, winning 30 seats, thus achieving the distinction of becoming the first regional party to become a national opposition party. Voting was held immediately after the [[assassination of Indira Gandhi]] and the [[1984 anti-Sikh riots]] in November and most of India supported Congress.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://hindi.eci.gov.in/files/file/7500-election-law-reports-vol-lxi-1984/// | title=Elections in Gujarat in 1984 }}</ref><br />
