After the BJP's defeat in three states, 'questions’ raise on Amit Shah's strategy
DEC 12 (WTN) - In the Assembly election of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh before the Lok Sabha elections to be held next year, the BJP has had to face defeat. After winning the Congress in all three states, questions have been raised about BJP's national president Amit Shah's election strategy. Out of these three states, the BJP had been in the government for the last 15 years in two states, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. The manner in which the BJP lost in all these three states, it has put question marks on BJP's Mission 2019.
For your information, let you know that this is not the first time when Amit Shah's election strategy has proved to be a failure. Rather, in pervious, three times Amit Shah had to face defeat. In the Delhi, Bihar and Karnataka assembly elections, Amit Shah's election strategy had been stalled and the BJP had to face defeat. After losing in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, once again Amit Shah will have to work hard in these states.
Amit Shah's election strategy proved to be unsuccessful in the Delhi Assembly elections first. The Aam Aadmi Party had won in the elections with a record breaking majority in the Delhi Assembly elections 2015 and the Aam Aadmi Party had won 67 of the 70 seats. In this election, the Congress could not win even a single seat and the BJP was reduced to just three seats. In the way, educated states like Delhi BJP had to face defeat e BJP, Amit Shah was severely criticized.
Amit Shah's election strategy proved to be unsuccessful even in Bihar Assembly election in 2015. In the Bihar Assembly elections, Lalu Prasad Yadav's party, RJD, won the maximum 80 seats, JDU won in 71 seats, while the Congress had won 27 seats in the Assembly elections. In that election, the BJP had won 53 and LDP and RLSP won two seats each. There was a grand alliance of the RJD, JDU and Congress in the Bihar Assembly elections.
Now let’s talk about the Karnataka Assembly elections this year, even here Amit Shah’s strategy failed so the BJP could not win there. The BJP emerged as the largest party winning 104 seats in the state but it remained behind the majority figure by 8 seats. In the Karnataka elections, Congress won 78 seats, JDS won 37 seats and JDU's ally BSP won one seat.
After the Karnataka elections, the Congress took political strife and supported the JDU and kept BJP away from the power. Karnataka was the only state where BJP could form the government. Even after this Amit Shah could not win the BJP in Karnataka.
After BJP's defeat in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, Amit Shah's leadership capacity has started to be questioned. These three were considered to be the stronghold of the BJP and the BJP had to face defeat in all these three states. After the defeat of the BJP in these three states before the Lok Sabha elections in 2019, Amit Shah will now have to make a new strategy and he will have to compete with the Congress rightly.
