The Lok Sabha elections are over, but the election results have given such a wound to the BJP that it will take a long time to heal. On the other hand, it took 12 years and 4 elections for Akhilesh Yadav to taste victory over the BJP. Akhilesh and his alliance are very excited with this victory, in such a situation, the by-elections to be held on 10 assembly seats have become very important for both BJP and India Block.
Although the date of the by-elections has not been announced yet, both the alliances have started gearing up for the elections. BJP’s national organization general secretary BL Santosh has reached Lucknow to review the defeat as well as the preparations for these 10 seats, while as soon as the Parliament session ended, Akhilesh Yadav has settled in his office in Lucknow for these elections and has started taking feedback from his organization and leaders regarding the seats and candidates in the by-elections.
At the same time, victory in the by-elections of these 10 assembly seats is very important for Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s political future, because if BJP loses the elections on these seats, then questions will start being raised on Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. At the same time, Akhilesh Yadav would like to maintain the momentum of his Lok Sabha victory in this by-election as well, because the Uttar Pradesh assembly elections in 2027 are going to be a matter of life and death for him. In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the SP and Congress alliance has won most of the assembly seats of 80 Lok Sabha seats.
CM Yogi has taken the command of the by-elections in his hands, in fact Yogi Adityanath knows that if the party loses in these by-elections, then the blame for the defeat will be put on him. In such a situation, sensing the future situation, CM Yogi has started a parallel process from the selection of candidates to election management and election strategy in the by-elections.
By-elections are to be held on these seats
By-elections are to be held in Karhal, Milkipur, Katehari, Kundarki, Ghaziabad, Khair, Mirapur, Phulpur, Majhwa and Sisamau seats.
15 ministers were given the responsibility of selecting candidates
The Chief Minister has called 15 of his ministers and formed a team to select candidates for the by-elections to be held on 10 assembly seats. Two ministers each have been asked to give a report on the selection of candidates and the ground situation for all the 10 assembly by-elections directly to the Chief Minister. It seems that this time Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is in the mood to directly intervene in the selection of candidates in these by-elections. Usually Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath keeps himself away from the selection of candidates, but this election will decide his reputation, so CM Yogi is looking very serious about the candidates before putting all his strength in this election.
Seats where it is not easy for BJP to win elections
Karhal- Akhilesh Yadav was an MLA from Karhal, now he is an MP from Kannauj. Akhilesh Yadav is preparing to field his nephew Tej Pratap.
Milkipur- Milkipur assembly seat of Ayodhya is such a seat where Awadhesh Prasad has been an MLA for 9 times. And this time he has become an MP. Samajwadi Party can field his son Ajit Prasad and this seat can be one of the difficult seats for BJP.
Sisamau- Sisamau seat of Kanpur has fallen vacant due to the conviction of Samajwadi Party MLA Irfan Solanki. This is one of the strong seats of Samajwadi Party, where this time SP can give ticket to someone from Irfan Solanki’s family. At the same time, people’s sympathy is also seen with Irfan, in such a situation this seat is one of the difficult seats for BJP.
Kunarki- Kundarki seat of Moradabad comes under Sambhal Lok Sabha seat, but due to Muslim majority, this seat is considered a stronghold of Samajwadi Party. Ziaur Rahman Warq was MLA from here, who has won the MP seat from Sambhal this time. In such a situation, it is very difficult for BJP to win this seat which has 60 percent Muslim majority.
katahari- Kathari is a seat in Ambedkar Nagar, from where senior Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Lalji Verma was an MLA and this time he became a SP MP from Ambedkar Nagar. Before joining SP in the last election, Lalji Verma was one of the big leaders of BSP. Now Lalji Verma wants to field his daughter Chhaya Verma from here and this seat is also one of the difficult seats for BJP.
Mirapur- It is not easy for BJP to win Muzaffarnagar’s Meerapur. In 2022, the RLD, SP alliance won this seat, Chandan Chauhan, who became MLA by winning in the alliance of SP and RLD, has become MP from Bijnor this time from BJP-RLD alliance, but this seat is not easy for BJP due to Muslim majority.
Phulpur- BJP had won from Phulpur assembly in 2022, from where Praveen Patel was elected MLA, but this time BJP made Praveen Patel win the MP seat from Phulpur, but Praveen Patel lost from the Phulpur assembly.
Congress is also claiming to contest the elections
In the last election, SP had won the seats of Karhal, Milkipur, Katehari and Kundarki Sitamau, while BJP has control over Ghaziabad, Khair, Phulpur. Majhava seat was won by Nishad Party and Meerapur seat by RLD. However, this time Congress is also claiming to contest on 2 to 3 seats.
