Atal Bihari Vajpayee was sworn in as Prime Minister of India for first time on 16 May 1996.

BJP was well short of majority and looking for allies, but Vajpayee resigned after just 13 days since he could not muster enough support. The ministry was kept small because its fate was uncertain when swearing-in took place.
