Syama Prasad Mukherjee (6 July 1901 – 23 June 1953) was an Indian politician, barrister and academician, who served as India's first Minister for Industry and Supply (currently known as Minister of Commerce and Industries) in Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru's cabinet. After falling out with Nehru,[3] protesting against the Liaquat–Nehru Pact, Mukherjee resigned from Nehru's cabinet.[4] With the help of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh,[citation needed] he founded the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, the predecessor to the Bharatiya Janata Party, in 1951.[5]

He was also the president of Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha from 1943 to 1946. He was arrested by the Jammu and Kashmir Police in 1953 when he tried to cross the border of the state. He was provisionally diagnosed of a heart attack and shifted to a hospital but died a day later.[6][7] Since the Bharatiya Janata Party is the successor to the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, Mukherjee is also regarded as the founder of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) by its members.[8]

Dr Mukherjee was inspired by the ideologies of Swami Pranavananda, founder of Bharat Sevashram Sangha and considered him as his guru.
