PREVENTING FURTHER FALL IS STILL TOUGH, NO QUESTION OF GAIN ANYWHERE ELSE

The impressive gains in Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, and Rajasthan could not blind the BJP leadership to the fact of its declining share of votes in all the states in November 2023 elections compared to Lok Sabha Election 2019, and hence it was compelled to bring new faces as Chief Ministers as a preventive measure to put a brake on its falling vote share and thereby its ultimate fall in the Lok Sabha Election 2024, when the BJP and PM Narendra Modi would be seeking for their third term. The Choice of CMs has never been aimed at gain in these states, since there is technically and otherwise no question of gain in terms of Lok Sabha seats in these states, or even elsewhere on account of caste or ST politics since the new CMs are just local leaders without any pan-India influence.
