It will be an acid test for the INDIA alliance as it’s the first major elections after the formation of the alliance. Success in these elections that are due to be held in the BJP strongholds will not only give the alliance a major boost but is sure to cast a deep dent into the saffron outfit’s morale. And since the elections are seen as a Semi- Finals to the General Elections scheduled for next year it’s a do or die for both the forces.
