Shimla: In Himachal Pradesh, the main contest in the assembly elections to be held later this year is between the ruling BJP and the opposition Congress, but the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which is reeling from the thumping victory in Punjab, has also announced to strike a chord here. . In such a situation, both BJP and Congress have become alert, because their disgruntled leaders can go to AAP. BJP chief JP Nadda is constantly visiting the state and monitoring the election preparations. Being the home state of Nadda, its importance is immense.
Political heat has started increasing in the naturally cold Himachal. Last year, Congress was successful in winning by-elections in one Lok Sabha and three assembly seats in Himachal. After defeating the BJP in these seats, the spirits of the Congress are high. On the other hand, after registering a big victory in neighboring Punjab, AAP is now trying to establish its roots in Himachal as well. In such a situation, the BJP has to fight on a double front. The BJP recently dealt a big blow to Kejriwal by bringing in several big leaders of AAP, but the Congress's challenge could become a headache for him.
According to sources, the BJP has started gearing up its election preparations in view of the future challenge. Each assembly constituency is being reviewed and the report card of every BJP MLA is being closely monitored. Sources say that social and political equations of every area will be kept in mind while deducting the ticket and fixing the ticket. A prominent leader of the party has told that this time more caution is being taken as a new platform of Aam Aadmi Party is present for the dissatisfied.
