Himachal Pradesh By-Elections Witness Congress Dominance
In the recently concluded Himachal Pradesh Assembly by-elections, candidates from the Congress party have emerged victorious in all three constituencies, signaling a potential shift in the state's political landscape.
Background
The by-elections were necessitated due to the resignations of three BJP MLAs who contested and won Lok Sabha seats in the 2019 general elections. The three constituencies involved were Dehra, Hamirpur, and Nalagarh.
Election Results
Kamlesh Thakur, the wife of Congress leader Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, has a commanding lead of 1,815 votes in the Dehra seat. Pushpinder Verma holds a slender advantage of 1,707 votes in Hamirpur, while Hardeep Singh Bawa maintains a lead of 1,571 votes in Nalagarh.
Significance
These by-election results are significant for several reasons. Firstly, they indicate a potential revival of the Congress party in Himachal Pradesh. The party has been out of power in the state since 2017, and these results suggest that it may be regaining some momentum.
Secondly, the results could impact the upcoming assembly elections in the state, scheduled for 2022. A strong showing by the Congress in these by-elections could boost the party's chances of unseating the incumbent BJP government.
