Bypoll Results Reflect Mood of Nation; BJP Losing People’s Faith!

New Delhi: The bypoll results declared yesterday may have come as a mixed bag for all the parties but one thing that has been made clear is that the Bharatiya Janata Party is losing ground rapidly and the mood of the nation is changing. The results indicate that the people have become aghast with the NDA government in many facets be it managing the Covid-19 pandemic of the unprecedented price rise. Bharatiya Janata Party’s Achhe Din is no longer exists and the situation is going to be worse in the coming days.

The people’s resentment that is seen in the results is based on the anger the common man has on the central government because of the rising fuel prices, inflation and the economic failures in many fields. Above all, the Central Government’s management of the pandemic will be the most immediate cause for a backlash from the voters.

Mamta Banerjee, who has become the most powerful leader in the country in the recent past because of her face off with the Center steered her party to win all the four assembly seats that went for bypolls. The TMC easily won the Dinhata, Khardaha, Gosaba and Santipur seats with 75 percent collective votes and proved that the Bharatiya Janata Party has no standing in Bengal. During the Assembly polls in May this year, the BJP had won the Dinhata and Santipur seats, whereas the TMC had won in Gosaba and Khardaha. The vote margin in Dinhata constituency was 1.5 lakh between the winning TMC and the BJP indicating that the Bharatiya Janata Party is loosing ground very fast.

In Karnataka, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai too could not help the party to win the bypolls. The prestige battle at the Chief Minister’s home turf shows that the Bharatiya Janata Party’s gamble in changing the face of the leadership went unworthy. The Karnataka by polls were held after the demise of Hanagal MLA CM Udasi of the ruling party and Sindgi MLA MC Managuli of the Janata Dal Secular.

The Hanagal bypolls were important for the party as it was the home turf for Basavaraj Bommai and he had campaigned vigorously. The defeat is going to shape the trend in the coming days and become a hurdle in Bommai becoming a face for the 2023 elections.

The Himachal Pradesh results came as a surprise for the Congress and a double whammy for Bharatiya Janata Party. Both the prestigious Mandi Lok Sabha and Jubbal-Kothai assembly seats went to the Congress. The defeat will is going to hit hart to the BJP as it is the home district of chief minister Jairam Thakur and Himachal Pradesh is the home state of BJP national president J P Nadda. Former chief minister Virbhadra Singh’s wife Pratibha Singh defeated BJP’s Brigadier Khushal Thakur in Mandi.

Bharatiya Janata Party’s anti farmer policies have led to the party’s debacle in Haryana’s Ellenabad where INLD’s Abhay Chautala won over the BJP-JJP candidate. The farmers anger is getting more and more day by day and will pay a crucial role in all the elections in the coming days. The anger of the farmers is clearly visible in the mandate. In Maharashtra, Shiv Sena’s Kalaben Delkar, wife of late MP Mohan Delkar, won the bypolls from the Dadra and Nagar Haveli, defeating BJP’s Mahesh Gavit.

Congress candidates in Rajasthan, Nagraj Meena and Preeti Shaktawat won the Dhariawad and Vallabhnagar assembly constituencies respectively with big margins of 18,725 and 20,606 votes. In all these defeats, the Bharatiya Janata Party’s inability to control prices of essential commodities and the ever increasing fuel prices is clearly visible.
