The Sangh had taken command of the Gujarat elections a year ago, reliable sources related to the Sangh revealed that after consulting the BJP top, the Sangh had entrusted the responsibility of Gujarat to more than 6000 of its volunteers, one in each assembly. More than 40 volunteers are active. Two main centers of election management have been set up, one in Ahmedabad and the other in Rajkot for the Saurashtra region. The BJP high command had clearly told its workers to work in coordination with the Sangh. Perhaps this was the reason that in the Gujarat elections, the BJP cut off the tickets of its established leaders on a large scale, but there was no squabbling anywhere, the Sangh did not allow Gujarat to become Himachal, the Sangh itself took up the task of convincing the angry leaders.

The Congress may have got a new president of the party in the form of Mallikarjun Kharge, but the pattern of its functioning looks the same. In the civic elections of Delhi, the responsibility of distributing tickets has again been given to the same troupe, which has been accused of selling tickets indirectly in the past as well. The chairmanship of the recently constituted Screening Committee for the corporation elections has been handed over to Avinash Pandey. Dr. Ajoy Kumar has been made co-incharge of Delhi. The other two members of the committee are Dr. K.K. Jayakumar and Qazi Mohammad Nizamuddin, former MLA from Mangalore in Uttarakhand. It is this team that becomes active in every election, which is said to have received the blessings of Alankar Sewai, an important member of Rahul’s team. Later Jagdish Tytler’s name was also added to the team. But BJP got the issue as soon as Tytler’s name was added and BJP accused Congress of neglecting Sikhs.

In Bihar’s Gopalganj seat, Lalu Yadav’s party’s candidate Mohan Gupta had to face defeat at the hands of the BJP by just 1794 votes. In this election, two undeclared friends of BJP i.e. BSP and Owaisi’s AIMIM played an important role in making BJP win. At the last moment, BSP fielded Lalu’s brother-in-law i.e. Sadhu Yadav’s wife Indra Yadav, who single-handedly got 8008 votes, as long as Sadhu was with Lalu, he used to handle the responsibility of Gopalganj and still holds some influence there. Owaisi’s candidate got more than 12 thousand votes, Nitish Kumar did not even go for the Gopalganj by-election campaign because Mohan Gupta is a liquor businessman.
