Sikkim Congress (Revolutionary) was a political party in Sikkim, India. It existed for a brief period of 1979-1980. During the Sikkim State Assembly Elections of 1979, the party won eleven seats out of thirty two, becoming the largest faction in the Assembly. In total the party received 14,889 votes (20.58 per cent of the votes in the state), however, the strength of the party declined rapidly as several elected members defected to Sikkim Prajatantra Congress Party. The party was ultimately dissolved as too few members remained with the party.
