These days, BJP is conducting a survey to assess the ground hold of its MPs and MLAs. In the Janman survey being conducted through NaMo App, feedback is being taken about the current MPs, how active they are in their area, what is their image among the workers and the common people, how aware they are about the schemes of the Central and State Government. . BJP often surprises in candidate selection and this can increase the concern of sitting MPs. The information regarding the survey of MLAs is that the report regarding the performance of about one and a half dozen is not good. By the way, there is still a lot of time left for the next assembly elections, during this period they can improve their report card. However, it is certain that if the MLAs falling in this category are looking towards the four vacant cabinet seats, then they will have to remain with a heavy heart.
One seat, one satrap, the rest wait and watch
The side effect of Congress’s defeat in the assembly elections of Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh is that now the leaders are not showing much interest in contesting the Lok Sabha elections. In Congress, elections are generally fought more on the basis of leader rather than organization.
Here big satraps dominate their seats. That means one satrap, one seat. Since the formation of a separate state, people ranging from Narayan Dutt Tiwari to Harish Rawat, Satpal Maharaj and Vijay Bahuguna can be included in this category of party leaders. Now Maharaj and Bahuguna have become part of BJP. Harish Rawat is left, he is still working with all his might. Rawat is the only one about whom it can be said that he will contest the Lok Sabha elections under any circumstances. The rest are in a wait and watch mode.
Support base almost zero, concern about maintaining coalition dharma
Opposition alliance INDIA is not going to have any impact on the five Lok Sabha seats of Uttarakhand. Here the contest in the Lok Sabha elections is limited to between BJP and Congress. However, apart from these two parties, BSP definitely has a support base on some seats in the two plain districts of the state, Haridwar and Udham Singh Nagar, but it is not a part of the alliance. SP has won the Haridwar seat in the year 2004, which has been its only electoral victory so far in Uttarakhand. SP could not get even a single seat in the five assembly elections. Despite all this, recently when Congress protested against the suspension of opposition MPs, SP National Secretary SN Sachan was seen practicing coalition dharma. Probably in the hope that in return the Congress might give one of the five seats to the SP to contest.
Kumari Selja in, Yadav out of comfort zone
Congress made major changes in the organization and Uttarakhand also came under this ambit. The party’s performance in front of BJP has not been anything special in the last 10 years. Now the party has given the responsibility of state in-charge to Kumari Selja. The future will tell how much Selja, who is counted among the experienced leaders, is able to change the political fortunes of the party in this hilly state. On the other hand, despite Congress not being able to win the elections, in-charge Devendra Yadav, who left without any achievement except increasing the number of members in the Assembly from 11 to 19, has now got the responsibility of Punjab. In Punjab, Aam Aadmi Party ousted Congress from power. Now Yadav will have to do the difficult task of making Congress visible in the seat distribution in the alliance during the Lok Sabha elections. Yadav ji, Uttarakhand still remained a comfort zone for you, right?
