The 31st government of Turkey (November 3, 1969 – March 6, 1970) was a government in the history of Turkey. It is known as second Demirel government.
Background
[edit]Justice Party (AP) won the elections held on October 12, 1969. Süleyman Demirel, the leader of the Justice Party, founded the government.
The government
[edit]In the list below, the serving period of cabinet members who served only a part of the cabinet's lifespan are shown in the column "Notes".
Aftermath
[edit]Justice Party had a majority in the parliament. Soon, however, two opposition groups appeared in the party; those supporting the former Democratic Party politicians and those trying to form a rightist party. Thus, the government ended because of a vote of no confidence in the interpellation voting on February 11, 1970. The next government, however, was again founded by Demirel.
