History
The BSP was founded on 23 February 1991.[1] The party contested the 1995 parliamentary elections, winning one seat in the second round of voting.[2][3] When the National Assembly was established in 1996, the party was not given any seats in the House of Representatives.[4]
The party folded in 1999 after failing to re-register.[5] In that year, it reported having 12,000 members.[1]
