The only party that are notable are the INC which is generic social democratic (although overall probably more left-wing then most First World social democratic parties), and the BJP (the "conservative" party being somewhat more pro-free market then INC but also a Hindu nationalist party linked to persecution of Christians and Muslims).

INC is the only real option here.

Thanks Mung Beans. I agree, INC is the only remotely agreeable option.
