'''''Samyukta Vidhayak Dal''''' was coalition of parties formed in several north Indian states after the 1967 assembly elections, made up of the [[Bharatiya Kranti Dal]], the [[Samyukta Socialist Party]], the [[Praja Socialist Party]] and the [[Jana Sangh]]. The coalition opposed the [[Indian National Congress]] party that had hitherto single-handedly dominated Indian politics.<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=qT7QvviGoJsC&q=samyukta+vidhayak+dal+1967&pg=PA46 |title=Business Standard Political Profiles of Cabals and Kings|author=Aditi Phadnis|author-link=Aditi Phadnis|year=2009|publisher=Business Standard |isbn=9788190573542|accessdate=7 April 2013}}<br>- {{cite news|url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/madhya-pradesh-political-crisis/article31029833.ece|title=Madhya Pradesh political crisis: Jyotiraditya Scindia joins BJP|work=The Hindu|date=10 March 2020|accessdate=21 January 2021}}<br>- {{cite news|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/signature/story/20140113-kaveree-bamzai-narendra-modi-gujarat-arvind-kejriwal-delhi-chief-minister-798297-1999-11-30|title=Why 2013 is not 1967|work=India Today|author=Kaveree Bamzai|date=13 January 2014|accessdate=21 January 2021}}</ref><br />

The [[1967 Indian general election]] was a landmark election in the history of India. The ruling Congress Party was returned to power with the lowest majority it had had since independence (284 seats). It was defeated in assemblies like [[1967 Bihar Legislative Assembly election | Bihar]], [[1967 Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly election | Uttar Pradesh]], [[1967 Rajasthan Legislative Assembly election | Rajasthan]], [[1967 Punjab Legislative Assembly election | Punjab]], [[1967 West Bengal Legislative Assembly election | West Bengal]], [[1967 Odisha Legislative Assembly election | Orissa]], [[1967 Madras Legislative Assembly election | Madras]], and [[1967 Kerala Legislative Assembly election | Kerala]]. In many states in the north, where it had won narrow victories, its members defected to opposition parties. Consequently, the Congress governments fell and they were replaced by Samyukta Vidhayak Dal (SVD) governments. This was a coalition of legislators against the Congress - made up Jana Sangh, Socialists, Swantantra Party and Congress defectors, beside local parties.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/opinion/The-Third-Front-myth/article20680686.ece|title=The Third Front myth|author=Rajesh Ramachandran |work=The Hindu Business Line|date=24 October 2013|accessdate=21 January 2021}}<br>- {{cite news|url=https://www.thestatesman.com/opinion/one-nation-one-poll-1502774714.html|title=One nation, one poll|author=Prafull Goradia |work=The Statesman|date=7 July 2019|accessdate=21 January 2021}}</ref><br />
