Akhil Bharatiya Ram Rajya Parishad (RRP, "All India Council of Ram's Kingdom") was an Indian Hindu nationalist political party founded by Swami Karpatri in 1948.[1] The RRP won three Lok Sabha seats in the 1952 elections to the national Parliament and two in 1962.[2] In 1952, 1957 and 1962, it won several dozen Vidhan Sabha seats, all in the Hindi belt, mostly in Rajasthan. Like other Hindutva-based parties, the RRP fought against the implementation of the Hindu code bills in India.[3] The party eventually merged into the Jana Sangh, the precursor to the Bharatiya Janata Party.[3]
