In the Lok Sabha elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party not only put forward the face of Modi, but also raised the slogan of ‘Ab Ki Baar Charso Paar’ with extreme confidence. The disadvantage of this type of campaign was that the party and workers became less active, victory was certain by sitting in cafes. On the other hand, most of the opposition parties entered the electoral fray in the name of ‘India’ party under the leadership of Congress to defeat BJP. The citizens of the country were surprised when Rahul Gandhi, who was ridiculed as a thug or Pappu, addressed the meeting as if he had taken training. BJP stooped to the level of obscenity and vulgarity in many meetings which had a negative impact on the voters. However, in the last days of the campaign, Congress was successful in spreading the message of fear, especially among the Dalits, that ‘if BJP comes back to power, it will change the Constitution from reservation to the heart of the country.’ Due to this the organized Hindu votes got scattered. It is also said that RSS activism and cadre based management have played an important role in the previous elections, but they have remained inactive. BJP had to suffer the consequences of false confidence. BJP got only 240 seats which was less than a clear majority. Fortunately, Chandrababu Naidu and Nitish Kumar’s party supported NDA as a constituent party and formed the government with 291 MPs. Congress made a strong comeback with 99 seats (India Alliance won 234 seats.) BJP suffered huge setbacks in Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Maharashtra. Out of total 80 seats in Uttar Pradesh, BJP got only 33 seats. There has been a clean sweep in only 9 cases in Maharashtra and 14 out of 25 cases in Rajasthan. The loss of dominance over the Hindi belt was heavy. Not only did Modi not get the prestige commensurate with his aura and position in the Varanasi seat, but he also got popularity in Ayodhya. Won 25 out of 26 seats in Gujarat. The overall result was that BJP had to introspect. Even if we say that life has been donated.

BJP government in Haryana: fear of defeat!

BJP was on the backfoot during the Haryana Assembly election campaign. Farmers in particular were very unhappy and the implementation of the Agneepath scheme was also unpopular among the youth. Last year, the wrestlers’ movement also heated up, inflation and unemployment increased. There was also an air that after the results of Lok Sabha elections, the influence of BJP and Modi has reduced at the Centre. All exit polls had predicted that Congress would win, but Congress lost its confidence and BJP maintained its confidence and campaigned on a cadre-based basis. That is, after the counting of votes started, Congress was moving towards a huge lead and preparations for the celebration had also started, but in the last round of counting, BJP made a comeback and won 48 to 37 seats. Bhupendra Singh Hooda of Congress remained in mind.

Mahayuti’s victory in Maharashtra: Uddhav and Sharad Pawar’s alliance is getting strong support from voters.

After Haryana, BJP misled political pundits in Maharashtra also. These two victories have revived the party after BJP’s disappointment in the Lok Sabha elections. The manner in which Maha Vikas Aghadi, the alliance of opposition parties, was defeated would have been a bigger blow to the veterans than the defeat in Maharashtra. BJP (132 seats), Eknath Shinde Shiv Sena (57), N.C.P. Ajit Pawar’s party (41) and other 5M alliance got 235 seats. In comparison, Shiv Sena’s Uddhav Thackeray got 20 seats, Congress 16, Sharad Pawar’s NCP got 10 and others got 4 seats. After much suspense, Fadnavis became the Chief Minister and both Shinde and Ajit Pawar became Deputy Chief Ministers. After the defeat in Haryana and Maharashtra, there are rumors that the Congress-led ‘Bharat’ alliance of opposition parties will break.

Seeing the nationwide influence of Modi and BJP, all the opposition parties felt that it would not work if two or three parties agreed on seat sharing alone, more and more opposition parties would come together, only then the wicket of Modi and BJP could fall and 26 The opposition parties came together and formed the ‘Indian National Development Inclusive Alliance’ – thus forming ‘India’ in short.
