  • AAP released second list for MP and Chhattisgarh assembly elections, who gets a chance?

    Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Monday released its second list of candidates for the upcoming assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. AAP released a list of 29 candidates for Madhya Pradesh and 12 for Chhattisgarh. Aam Aadmi Party posted separate lists of both the states on social media platform ‘X’. AAP wrote- Major announcement. Our second list of candidates for Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh assembly elections has arrived. Best wishes to all the candidates. This time the broom will work.

    Who got the chance in Chhattisgarh?

    Candidates for 12 seats of Chhattisgarh Assembly have been declared in the list released by Aam Aadmi Party’s National Organization General Secretary Dr. Sandeep Pathak, Chhattisgarh State President Komal Hupendi and State Incharge Sanjeev Jha. Party state unit treasurer Jasbir Singh and Raipur councilor Tarun Vaidya have been included in the list. Of the 12 seats for which the party has released the list of candidates, four seats are reserved for ST candidates and two for the Scheduled Caste category.

    AAP’s election record in Chhattisgarh

    According to the report of news agency PTI, AAP had tried its luck for the first time in Chhattisgarh Assembly elections 2018 and had fielded its candidates on 85 out of total 90 seats, but was not successful. In the 2018 elections, none of your candidates were successful in saving their deposits. The election schedule for the 90-member Chhattisgarh Assembly has not been announced by the Election Commission yet. The party had announced the first list of ten candidates last month.

    Purpose of emerging as an alternative

    In Chhattisgarh, the main contest has been between two parties, Congress and BJP. In the 2018 elections in the state, former Chief Minister Ajit Jogi’s party Janata Congress Chhattisgarh (J) and BSP had contested the elections in alliance. The alliance had got seven seats. In the 2018 elections, Congress got 68 seats and BJP got 15 seats. Congress currently has 71 MLAs in the state. AAP is trying to get a better position in this year’s elections because JCC (J) is marginalized after the death of Ajit Jogi in 2020.

    Who got the opportunity from Madhya Pradesh?

    Aam Aadmi Party released its second list for Madhya Pradesh elections late on Monday night. It includes names of 29 candidates. Mohammad Saud has been given a chance from Bhopal North, Anurag Yadav from Indore-1 seat, Piyush Joshi from Indore-4 seat. Ramani Devi Jatav from Bhander seat, Rahul Kushwaha from Bhind and Satendra Bhadauria from Mehgaon have been fielded. Engineer Deepak Singh Patel has been given a chance from Rewa seat, Vijay Mohan Pala from Patan seat and Anup Goyal from Shivpuri seat.

    Keep an eye on Congress’ stance

    It is noteworthy that Aam Aadmi Party has released its second list at a time when a lot of speculations were being made about the opposition INDIA alliance. It was being said that the opposition parties could unite and contest the assembly elections. Please note that till now no list has been released by Congress in both the states. In such a situation, eyes are fixed on the stand of Congress. It remains to be seen whether Congress comes with an alliance for the assembly elections or decides to contest the elections on its own.

  • Shah’s visit suddenly postponed, initiation of Parivartan Yatra from Dantewada, Raman’s sharp attack on Baghel government

    BJP started its ‘Parivartan Yatra’ from Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh on Tuesday. This yatra will pass through all the districts of the state via Bastar. Union Home Minister Amit Shah was to flag off this visit, but due to some reasons his visit was canceled at the last moment. In the absence of Amit Shah, BJP state in-charge Om Mathur flagged off the yatra after offering prayers at the famous Maa Danteshwari temple in Dantewada city.

    Former Chief Minister Raman Singh, State President Arun Sao, Narayan Chandel were riding in the Parivartan Yatra chariot. Parivartan Yatra will reach Jagdalpur from Dantewada district. It is noteworthy that in the 2013 elections, Congress had taken out Parivartan Yatra but could not win. However, he got its benefit in 2018. This journey, which started from Dantewada, will conclude in Bilaspur. Opposition party BJP has planned two Parivartan Yatras in the state. The next yatra will be flagged off by BJP President JP Nadda on September 15 in Jashpur.

    A total of 84 public meetings and 85 welcome meetings and seven road shows will be organized by the BJP in both the visits. Both the yatras will pass through a total of 87 assembly constituencies. A total distance of 2,989 kilometers will be covered under these journeys. Later these journeys will end in Bilaspur. Rajya Sabha MP Saroj Pandey said as the name suggests, the state needs change from the Congress party and the Bhupesh Baghel government. This government has not fulfilled about 36 promises made to the voters.

    Addressing the public meeting organized on this occasion, former CM Raman Singh targeted the Congress government and alleged that the Baghel government is indulging in corruption and looting the people of the state. The Bhupesh Baghel government has done nothing except corruption during its five-year rule. We are not saying this but it has been revealed in the investigation of the Enforcement Directorate. This government has done scams in rice, coal, liquor, DMF, Gauthan etc.
