The correct option is B <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam
After dominating Indian politics for three decades, the Indian National Congress was now challenged by other parties. A competitive multi-party system had already extended its roots in the country. However, the defeated Congress party did not try to cling to power but allowed the victors to form governments. The DMK party in Madras, present day Tamil Nadu, won by a huge margin.
