CONGRESS IS MAINLY RESPONSIBLE FOR BJP GAINS IN BIHAR ASSEMBLY POLL

ORGANISATIONAL LAPSES, BAD CHOICE OF CANDIDATES WERE THE FACTORS
Arun Srivastava - 2020-11-12 09:45
Now the NDA has won the Bihar assembly elections .but an insight into the BJP win would make it clear that three completely different factors were responsible for the defeat of Mahagathbandhan. Of the reasons the first was incompetent handling and marshalling of his manpower by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. Though Tejashvi had given 70 seats the party did not have genuine candidates, having their support base and an image in their areas. The Congress distributed the tickets whimsically to satisfy the ego of their leaders. Some leaders had even raised the issue of selling the tickets. In the final count only 19 Congress candidates could win. Congress losing 51 seats was the severest set back. All the seats were won by the BJP.

LIBERATION OF THE RULING PARTY

Vijay Sanghvi - 2020-11-12 01:58
The outcome of the Bihar assembly polls is important not because of the positive verdict in favour of the ruling coalition. It gains liberation from its captivity to the leadership of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. Only in March 2020 the Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat had publicly disowned not only the Prime Minister Narendra Modi but had also announced disassociation with the Bharatiya Janata Party that stood in support of the NaMo regime. It was a message to Sangh, both the active cadre and admirers not to lend their services to the coalition in the neighbouring state. His denouncement was not to indicate his loss of interest in Indian politics but his horrification at his own inability to deter the Prime Minister from his line of politics.
