History

In June, 1951 Indian National Congress dissidents led by Jivatram Kripalani founded the KMPP. Two of its leaders, Prafulla Chandra Ghosh and Tanguturi Prakasam, had been chief ministers of West Bengal and of Madras respectively.[1] It contested the 1951–52 Indian general election, the first such polls in India. The party nominated candidates in 145 constituencies across sixteen states, but won only ten seats, six candidates being elected from Madras state,[2] and one each from Mysore state, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Vindhya Pradesh,[3][4] getting 5.8% of the votes. Kripalani himself lost from the (now defunct) Faizabad District (North West) constituency, but his wife, Sucheta Kripalani, was elected from New Delhi. It won 77 seats in the State legislative assemblies.[citation needed] In September, 1952 it merged with the Socialist Party to form the Praja Socialist Party.[1][5]
