  1. WINDS OF CHANGE

  2. BJP’s ambition of having a Congress-free India that was looking eminently achievable a few seasons ago, now seems to be changing in this last month of 2018. It can be said that this is because of the ghastly thrash of BJP in the Rajasthan, Karnataka, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh elections last month to the Congress-Janata Dal.

  3. In Chhattisgarh, where the BJP had been ruling for the past 15 years, the Congress won a staggering 68 seats out of 90, and BJP reduced to a meagre 15. This was a shocking turnaround from the 2013 elections when the BJP had won 49 and the Congress 39. In Rajasthan, Congress won 99 seats, falling short of the halfway mark of 101 in the 199 seats where polling was held this time, the BJP found itself languishing at a distant 73, a precipitous fall from the 163 seats it bagged in 2013.

  4. The ultimate big setback came from Madhya Pradesh, another long-time stronghold of the BJP where it had won the past three assembly elections. After a daylong see-saw battle, the Congress finally piped the BJP to the post by winning 114 seats, five more than its rival. And once again with the support of BSP, which won two seats, the Congress hit the simple majority mark. Back in 2013, the Congress had won only 58 seats and the BJP a whopping 165 in the 230-member House.

  5. The Congress, however, has plenty of reasons to celebrate. The three victories in the Hindi heartland have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is back in the game as a true contender for the upcoming general elections.
