The 7th Gujarat Legislative Assembly election was held in 1985.[1][2][3] The incumbent Indian National Congress (INC) obtained majority with an increase in the vote share and number of seats. This was a record number of seat. INC won 149 seats out of total 182 seats. Janata Party (JP) won only 14 seat, which showed dominance of INC at that time.
