This is the electoral history of Chaudhary Charan Singh. Charan Singh served as the prime minister of India from July 1979 to August 1979 and deputy prime minister of India from January 1979 to July 1979. He served as union minister of home affairs from March 1977 to July 1978 and union minister of finance from 1979 to 1980. He was also a two term chief minister of Uttar Pradesh between 1967 and 1970.
Singh began his political journey in the 1930s as part of the Indian Independence Movement. He was elected to the Uttar Province Legislative Assembly in 1937 as a member of the Indian National Congress (INC).
After independence, Singh initially continued as a Congress leader and won multiple assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh in year 1952, 1957, 1962, 1967. He held several cabinet ministerial positions in Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly. Singh left the Congress party in 1967 and formed the Bharatiya Kranti Dal (BKD). His party gained significant traction, and he became the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh in 1967 with the support of a non-Congress coalition. However, his tenure was short-lived, as he resigned in 1968. In 1969, he reformed his BKD party and contested the elections, returning as Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister in 1970 with the support of the Congress.
During the Emergency (1975–77), Singh was imprisoned for opposing Indira Gandhi's authoritarian rule. After the Emergency, he played a key role in forming the Janata Party, which won the 1977 general elections. He became the deputy prime minister and home minister in Desai government. After internal conflicts within the Janata Party, Singh was backed by Indira Gandhi's Congress (I) to become the 5th prime minister of India on 28 July 1979. However, he never faced Parliament for a vote of confidence, as Congress withdrew support, leading to his resignation on 14 January 1980.
In 1980, Singh founded the Lok Dal, which emerged as a strong farmer-based party. He contested the 1980 and 1984 general elections, but his party could not challenge the dominance of Congress. His last electoral contest was in 1984, which he won but due to deteriorating health, he gradually withdrew from active politics. In his whole career he contested nine elections, out of which six were state assembly elections while three were Lok Sabha elections and he won all these nine elections.
