The Bharatiya Awam Party is a registered unrecognised political party[1] in India.
The majority of the party's members are Muslims. The party claims to have more than 35,000 members[2] with over 50,000 applications. The demographic composition of the party is 90% female, with a 10% male reservation.
The party sees the Indian freedom fighter Subhas Chandra Bose as its ideal figure,[3] and aims to represent the interests of women, of whom many are employed in Varanasi's sari industry.[4]
The party announced unconditional support for Narendra Modi in the 2014 election, and would not contest the election, but plans to contest the 2017 polls.[5]
