Along with this, the Dhami government has taken steps towards implementing a Uniform Civil Code in Uttarakhand. In such a situation, in view of Dhami’s increased stature politically, the BJP is going to make full use of him in both the election states.
During this, while the party will underline the importance of double engine, while in view of development, it will try to give a message to the people that it is in the interest of the states not to change. For this, Uttarakhand will be presented as an example.
Created history by winning 57 out of 70 assembly seats
If we look at the political history of Uttarakhand, till the year 2017, there was a myth that the power changes here every five years. In the 2017 assembly elections, the BJP created history by winning 57 out of 70 seats in the assembly, securing a thumping majority.
In such a situation, in the year 2022 assembly elections, the challenge before the BJP was to break this myth. The party succeeded in this with the help of a double engine and under the leadership of Chief Minister Dhami. Although the BJP lost 10 seats compared to its previous performance, it managed to secure a clear majority.
The myth-breaking victory naturally tied Chief Minister Dhami’s head. This was the reason that despite losing the election, the central leadership of the party reposed faith in Dhami. Dhami justified the decision of the central leadership by securing a historic victory in the by-election.
Take steps on the principle of booth won – election won:
Along with this, BJP took steps on the basic mantra of winning the booth in the assembly elections in Uttarakhand. Emphasis on assembly constituency wise election management.
Not only this, Chief Minister Dhami had promised to implement Uniform Civil Code in the state during the elections. Dhami decided to constitute an expert committee in this regard in the first cabinet of the second innings itself. The committee is constantly taking suggestions from the public. Even this has sent a good message to the country.
In view of all this, the Chief Minister wants to capitalize on Dhami’s image and development in the state on the basis of double engine in the assembly elections of Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat.
In this episode, the schemes of more than one lakh crores received by the state from the center can be mentioned. Where the provincial office bearers of Uttarakhand BJP are playing an important role in election management in Himachal, the sequence of election meetings of Chief Minister Dhami has also been started there.
On the previous day itself, Dhami had held meetings in favor of party candidates in three assembly constituencies there. The schedules of his other meetings are being scheduled in the coming days.
According to party sources, the strategy of election management at the booth level was adopted in the assembly elections of Uttarakhand, the same is being adopted in Himachal. The party’s intention behind all this is to break the myth of changing power in Himachal every five years.
