The Ecevit II cabinet was the 40th government of Turkey , which was headed by Prime Minister Bülent Ecevit from June 21, 1977 to July 21, 1977 .
In the elections in September 1977 , Bülent Ecevit and the social democratic Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi (CHP) won 41.4 percent of the vote, narrowly missing an absolute majority. A CHP minority cabinet followed. Suleyman Demirel's conservative-liberal Adalet Partisi (AP) received 36.4 percent of the vote. The right-wing parties lost votes and the Islamic Millî Selamet Partisi also lost dramatically.
The years that followed, up to the military coup in 1980, were dominated by the ongoing rivalry between Ecevit and Demirel, who repeatedly tried to rule with minority cabinets, and the street terror of right-wing extremist groups. In 1977 alone, more than 800 people were killed by right-wing extremist terror. In the meantime, the Alevis religious community was also caught in the crosshairs of the Gray Wolves .
Ecevit's government was short-lived. The Prime Minister lost a vote of confidence in July 1977. Demirel forged a new edition of the "Cabinet of the Nationalist Front" .
