As soon as the by-elections were over, calculations started about victory and defeat, speculations were also being made on the inaction of BSP.

Lucknow, 21 November (HS). After the by-elections held on nine assembly seats, all the political parties are busy calculating the results of victory and defeat. On one hand, SP is claiming victory on all the seats, while on the other hand, BJP has also started making preparations for the celebration. Meanwhile, Congress and BSP are silent. Even during the elections, there was no enthusiasm among the Congress leaders nor were they seen moving in coordination with the SP. People are making various kinds of speculations on the silence of BSP.

There was a clear fight between BJP and SP on nine assembly seats on Wednesday. BSP workers also remained missing at many places. At the same time, even in Congress, enthusiasm and coordination with SP was not seen anywhere. Even Akhilesh Yadav kept raising the issue of irregularities during the election process on social media since morning, on which the Election Commission also took action, but Congress leaders were not seen supporting Akhilesh Yadav even on social media.

During the entire by-election, BSP chief Mayawati held a press conference only once. After this she remained silent. Other big officials of BSP also did not show interest in campaigning for their candidates. Due to this, BSP’s election campaign remained dull. Not only this, no commotion was seen by BSP at the booths. At many places, there are reports of absence of even BSP agents. People are now making various kinds of speculations on the silence of BSP.

Some analysts say that under the pressure of BJP, BSP remained silent in the elections, because there was a fear of harm to BJP candidates in many places due to its activism. BSP had already understood that it was only registering its presence in this by-election. He is not able to do anything special in this.

At the same time, some political analysts say that the BSP chief deliberately did not become active, so that she could avoid allegations of her image falling after the defeat. After the defeat in the elections, BSP will blame the defeat on the regional officials and remove them from the post and will try to give the message that the party’s defeat was due to the inaction of the regional officials.
