Assembly elections in Gujarat will be held in December, but political parties have already started preparing. Sadhna to rural voters will be a big challenge for the BJP, which has been in power for a long time in the state. In the rural areas of Gujarat, the BJP is not holding the same as it is in the cities. In the last elections, the BJP could win only 64 seats out of 143 rural seats in the state. At the same time, it had won 35 out of 39 seats in cities, due to poor performance in rural areas, the party was stuck in only 99 seats in the last election. On the other hand, Congress had managed to win 77 seats due to rural seats, which is why this time BJP is focusing more on rural areas. To woo rural voters, BJP leaders definitely mention in their speeches that the central government is sending Rs 6,000 annually to the bank accounts of 11 crore farmers. It is assuming that New Delhi | The leadership in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh assembly elections to be held in October-November next year will be decided after the results of Gujarat and Himachal are declared. Ajay Jamwal, who is looking after the work of the organization of these two states, has been asked to submit a report in this regard in three months.
The BJP believes that the political equations are more in favor of the BJP as the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is active in the state. AAP had won 27 seats in the Surat Municipal Corporation elections. It is clear that Congress is lagging behind in urban areas. In such a situation, voters with anti-incumbency will be divided, which will benefit the BJP. The situation is the same in rural areas as well. There, in response to the BJP, AAP is also claiming to have formed a village committee and a booth committee in the villages. The BJP believes that if the sporadic farmers are displeased, then their votes will also be divided between the Congress and the AAP. He will benefit from it.
The BJP has not yet reached any conclusion regarding whether to contest the elections under the leadership of Shivraj Singh Chouhan in Madhya Pradesh. Has happened . Sources say that Jamwal will report only after the results of Himachal and Gujarat assembly elections are out. BJP has changed leadership in Gujarat and made Bhupendra Patel as CM there. The party did this in view of the anti-incumbency trend. The last time the BJP fought under the leadership of Vijay Rupani, the number of seats got stuck at 99. In Gujarat, BJP is in government for a long time, so the situation there is more sensitive. On the contrary, power changes in Himachal every 5 years. It is believed that if the BJP wins in both the states and the vote percentage increases, then the chances of change of leadership in Madhya Pradesh will be less. A victory in both the states would mean that there is no resentment against the current leadership.
