These assembly elections are being seen as a crucial “semifinal” before the 2024 general elections. The outcome of these polls will have implications for the morale of the political parties and their narratives. The BJP is looking to benefit from anti-incumbency sentiment in Rajasthan and the welfare schemes implemented by the Modi government. The party has also focused on women’s quota, reduced LPG prices, and fielded Union ministers and MPs from weaker seats. The Congress, on the other hand, is buoyed by its win in Karnataka and is pushing for Mandal politics and caste surveys in Bihar.
The polls in Madhya Pradesh will test the incumbent CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s popularity, while Rajasthan will see a direct contest between BJP and Congress. Chhattisgarh, which has a history of revolving door politics, will be a tough battle for both parties. In Telangana, the ruling TRS party will face a challenge from the Congress and BJP, who are looking to make inroads in the state.
In conclusion, these assembly elections will not only impact the political landscape in these states but also set the stage for the 2024 general elections. The results will determine the confidence of the political parties and their positioning as the natural leader of India.
