Explanation
★The feature that does not characterise electoral politics in India today is the stabilisation of the Congress dominance system.
★The Congress system of one-party dominance broke down from the late 1960s and especially after 1989.
★Today's politics is marked instead by coalition formation at the centre and in many states.
★A multi-party system, with strong regional and state parties, is now the norm.
★The scope of electoral choices before voters has widened, not narrowed.
★Find the trait that no longer fits: a stable Congress-dominant system belongs to the past, not the present.
