Promising to waive loans for farmers and small businessmen, his campaign gained strong public support. Lok Dal and its allies won a sweeping victory, securing 76 out of 90 seats, with Lok Dal alone winning 60. Devi Lal was chosen as Chief Minister and immediately fulfilled his promise by waiving outstanding loans. His government lasted four years, but in the 1991 elections, the Congress regained power as Lok Dal lost popular support.
