Abstract

Right-wing politics in Israel and India is represented by Likud and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), respectively. The right-wing parties in the two nations have witnessed ideological and political realignments over the years. The changes in the ideological postulates of the two key parties have shown the significant ideological conciliation over the years. Further, as the contemporary electoral politics in both Israel and India have increasingly been gravitated toward coalition, the two main right-wing parties have also shown considerable realignment with the like-minded moderate parties of their respective groups. Other parties of the right-wing block have also remained largely intact with the major pan right parties—Likud and BJP.
