When Vajpayee was PM, he formed the government with 23 parties.

The claim is proven to be misleading because it is not consistent with the interview records published by the Ministry of External Affairs documents.

The claim is proven to be misleading because it is not consistent with the interview records published by the Ministry of External Affairs documents. Prime Minister Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee's interview records from The Ministry of External Affairs document and the PDF from Ataljee.org shows complete interview record. The records state the actual count of forming the government is with 24 parties, not 23. Hence we conclude this as misleading.
