Gujarat: Congress is playing Charan Singh-Jan Sangh, Rahul's journey at stake between 'Anti Incumbency' and 'Votkatwa'

Gujarat assembly elections have been announced. Voting will be held on December 1 and 5. This time apart from the BJP and the Congress, the Aam Aadmi Party is also making a mark in the elections. For Congress, this election is like 'do or die'. Whichever party will occupy power in Gujarat, chances will increase for that party in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. This election will be no less than a litmus test for the newly elected non-Gandhi president of the Congress party, Mallikarjun Kharge. There is a possibility that Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi should stay away from the election campaign. The reason is, Sonia Gandhi is busy due to her health and Rahul Gandhi is busy with India Jodo Yatra. Will the Congress party, which is close to victory in the 2017 elections by taking 77 seats, be able to take advantage of the 'anti-incumbency factor' this time? Political experts say that Rahul Gandhi's 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' will be considered successful only if Congress performs well in Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh elections. Kharge's success also largely rests on the elections of these two states. The Congress party has played the same trick in Gujarat which Ch. She went against Indira Gandhi in 1977 through Charan Singh and Jana Sangh.

AAP has repeated this story in Delhi and Punjab.

Let us tell you that in the assembly elections held so far in Gujarat, the main contest has been between Congress and the BJP. Now for the first time there the Aam Aadmi Party has come out as a third party. How much support the party has, only the election results will be able to tell, but AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal is hopeful that he can do something big. BJP feels that it is beneficial for Kejriwal to be strong here. This is the reason that many times in the media, AAP is called BJP's B team. Punjab and Delhi are exceptions to this. BJP leaders say that Gujarat is PM Modi's home state. Its effect has been seen in every election there. RSS and BJP together have prepared their cadre vote there. About AAP, it is believed that the number of votes it will get, its loss will be to the Congress party. The story has repeated itself in AAP, Delhi, and Punjab.

Environment against power in Gujarat, Congress will get the benefit

Arvind Kejriwal says in his election rallies, these two parties 'Congress and BJP' are mixed. Don't fall prey to them. Our survey says that Aam Aadmi Party is close to victory in Gujarat. Former Congress President Rahul Gandhi said in the Bharat Jodo Yatra on Monday, in Gujarat, the Aam Aadmi Party is only in the air, not on the ground. He has claimed that the Congress party is strong there. AAP is only spending money on advertising. There is an atmosphere against power. Congress will get benefit from this. The next government will be formed by the Congress party. Responding to a question on what will be his responsibility in the Gujarat elections, Rahul said, "All these things will be decided by party president Mallikarjun Kharge." In the 2017 assembly elections, the BJP got 99 seats and the Congress 77 seats. Congress Rajya Sabha MP Rajeev Shukla has said that the impact of Rahul's Bharat Jodo Yatra is in both Gujarat and Himachal.

In the election, this snake is put in someone's neck.

Political analyst Rashid Kidwai says, the Congress party in Gujarat has come up with a unique strategy this time. BJP wanted this election to become Modi vs Rahul like Lok Sabha election. Congress has failed at least this strategy of the BJP. Rahul Gandhi may be completely out of this election. The Congress party has given a big responsibility to the state unit itself. Priyanka Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge, and other leaders will campaign for the party. Every election has its style. In some places, the benefit of the 'anti-incumbency factor is possible for Congress. This election is a test of the opposition. Vote cut party, although no party wants to get this stain on itself, in elections, this snake is put in someone's neck. If the Congress party is successful in its strategy, it can do something like the Bharatiya Lok Dal's Ch. Charan Singh and Jana Sangh did against Indira Gandhi in the rural area. Both of them also got the advantage of focusing on rural areas.

Is BJP preparing to reach around 100 seats?

As Rashid Kidwai, AAP is not active in Himachal. He must have had some political assessment of his own. You are very active in Gujarat. The vote percentage can be dented. There have been fifty seats in Gujarat where the BJP has always faced difficulties. In the last election too, he had to be satisfied with only a dozen seats in the tribal area. There is public outrage due to the collapse of the bridge in Morbi, but it will be known in the elections. There was a ruckus in Lakhimpur, UP, but it did not prove to be harmful to the BJP in terms of votes. BJP insiders in Gujarat believe that even though the party may set a target of getting 150 seats from the public platform, it is preparing to reach around 100 seats. For both Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, this election is a test. Only if we win, the road to 2024 will be paved. If the results are not according to the mind, the party may have to bear the brunt of the far-reaching consequences. Rahul's journey may also be at stake.
