MCD Polls 2022: Holding hundred roadshows, public Meetings Bharatiya Janata Party leaders try hard to woo the voters of Delhi.
Now when there are only three days left for the Municipality Corporation of Delhi poll campaign, most of the senior BJP leaders including its chief ministers and union ministers held approximately hundred public meetings and roadshows to woo the voters across Delhi.
Now the political experts are churning over the reply to the question -Who will win MCD polls? Is it going to be the BJP or AAP?
Now Delhi which has not gone for assembly polls, cannot remain untouched by the results in Uttarakhand, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Goa and Manipur.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) being the ruling party of Delhi, is known for registering a thumping victory in Punjab with a fabulous majority seems all set to form the government again in the Capital.
AAP’s existence in Punjab has been there for last nine years since the inception of the party in 2013. It then had shocked the rivals in 2014 by winning couple of Lok Sabha seats. In the Punjab assembly polls of 2017, AAP’s performance confirmed that the previous victory in 2014 was not a flash in the pan. Pushing the Akali Dal to the 3rd position the Kejriwal party ended up second, .
Significantly, despite declaration of the CM candidate in advance and with much media hype, the party could not open its account in Uttarakhand state and same happened and also did not meet the expectation of rising in Goa either. It was surprising for many pol pundits in the two states which actually were expected to have better level of acceptance for the Kejriwal brigade than a smaller state like Punjab.
UP being BJP’s stronghold never gave an opportunity for the AAP to expect much in the northern Indian state. Thus the party expectedly could not be able to open its account in UP. The logic comes out of the fact that in both Punjab and Delhi, it successfully has replaced Congress as the ruling party, and still is being expected to usurp another BJP-ruled state too.
Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia during his roadshow in Delhi’s Ashok Nagar, alleged that development in the Capital has approached to a “new low” in the last almost 8 years under the the Kejriwal governance.
“Everywhere under BJP’s double-engine government rule development has been a top priority,” Scindia said adding that the manifesto of the party for the MCD polls takes care of all concerns which include the slum dwellers along with women, in the Capital.
There can be no better leader than our Prime Minister Narendra Modi as far as progress and development are concerned, the Union Minister said while referring to BJP ruled states’ infrastructure development.
On the other hand, in Delhi, Bharatiya Janata Party could not woefully develop a strong state-level leadership that could counter Arvind Kejriwal’s campaigns with full of vigor. For BJP it has gone a wrong call when the party replaced Satish Upadhyay as Delhi BJP President with Manoj Tiwari being desirous to Bihari votes.
