1991

The 1991 Indian general election was not held in Jammu and Kashmir due to severe insurgency and the breakdown of law and order that peaked between 1990 and 1991. During this period, the state was under Governor's Rule and direct Central Government administration from January 1990 to October 1996, with Lok Sabha elections resuming only in May 1996.
