BJP will blow full strength in Assam to reach the target of more than 20 seats in the northeast

Guwahati, December 23 (IANS). Although it is a difficult challenge to win 20 of the 25 Lok Sabha seats in the northeast, the BJP is optimistic that it will be successful in the 2024 Mission 20 plus in the region. The election performance of the Saffron Party in Assam, where there are 14 Lok Sabha seats, will decide whether or not this target has been reached. In Assam, the BJP won nine out of 14 seats in the 2019 general election. Aiudf President Badruddin Ajmal defeated the party in Dhubri, and Congress won three seats Nagaon, Kaliyabor and Barpeta. BJP’s ally United People’s Party -Liberal won in the Kokrajhar meeting seat. The BJP wants to win more seats in the state this time. Apart from the preservation of all the seats won in the last Lok Sabha election, the party holds three seats currently at the MPs of Congress. The Nagaon seat of Pradhanut Bordoloi is the first target of BJP. Even before he became a strong power in 2014, the Saffron Party won this seat more than once. Rajen Gohain represented Nagaon selection division in 1999, 2004, 2009 and 2014 four times. In 2019, Gohain did not get a ticket and the BJP has a young face as a metaphor Sarma instead of a four -time MP. Gohan, who served as Minister of Union in the first Modi cabinet. He was not satisfied with the ticket distribution and showed his anger. It also caused a resentment at the local level, which eventually lost the BJP the seat of Bordoloi. According to Rajen Gohain’s recent comment, the AIUDF in this situation is now overwhelming and it will be difficult for the BJP to win the nagaon seat. But according to party resources, Himanta Biswa Sarma Nagaon is committed to recycling the seat and the BJP has prepared a stage for a strong performance. Gaurav Gogoi, son of former chief minister Tarun Gogoi, is an MP of Kaliyabor selection division. During the demarcation process, this seat was over and the new Lok Sabha seat was formed Kaziranga. A prominent BJP leader claims that there are majority of Hindu voters in the new seat and that the party will easily win it in the coming general election. The Muslim population in Barpeta and Dhubri is more than 50 percent. In his internal meetings, the BJP rejected the possibilities of winning these seats and decided to firmly dispute the remaining 12 seats. Piyush Hazarika, a strong pastor and near the chief minister, said Sarastic: “We deliberately left a few seats for the congress and AIUDF and will win 12 of the 14 Lok Sabha seats.” Meanwhile, the president of the Assam Congress, Bhupen Bora, told Ians: “BJP knows that their position in most seats in the state is very bad. I’m sure that if elections are held today, the congress will win at least seven lure Sabha seats here.” Apparently, the BJP rides on the popular image of chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma in the state. Assam has about 30 percent of the Muslim population and this class is not satisfied with Sarma’s functioning. Constant eviction campaign in Muslim -dominated areas, actions on Madrasas, a large number of police meetings and recent action against child marriage -Muslims in the state feel that they have been targeted by administration in almost everything. He will certainly vote against the BJP in the 2024 general election. Himanta Biswa Sarma knows this well and has repeatedly said that he does not need ‘Mia’ votes; The word was created by the Chief Minister of Assam to refer to Bengali who speaks Muslims in the state. As Hindus is more than Muslims in the Upper Assam region, it can be easy for the BJP to win seats there. The situation will be different in the Barak Valley and the Lower Assam, where Muslim voices generally win or defeat. The situation remains the same in the Barak Valley and six seats in the Lower Assam. The united candidate of opposition parties will be a strong force against the BJP. However, AIUDF’s exit from the “India” Alliance is an advantage for the BJP. The most recent demarcation exercise shows that the BJP did an extensive internal evaluation of the demographics of Assam and tried to “change” the process by abolishing four districts shortly before the ECI released the demarcation practice. To produce promising results from the northeast in the next year’s election, the BJP will have to perform very well in Assam. In some countries such as Meghalaya, Mizoram and even in Nagaland, BJP cannot win on its own. He must depend on colleagues. Therefore, Sarma’s strategy is to make everything in the trouble of winning more and more seats in Assam. If the BJP does not do well in Assam, it is very difficult to achieve the purpose of the saffron party. -Ians CBT
