Jhunjhunu News Desk: There are speculations that there will be a big upset this time in Jhunjhunu Assembly seat. In the counting of by-election votes, Congress is lagging badly in its biggest bastion Jhunjhunu. This time, Congress, which has been in Jhunjhunu for the last 20 years, is sweating profusely even in winter. Former minister Rajendra Singh Gudha, who contested the elections here as an independent, has worried the traditional voters of Congress and BJP. Here the contest is going on between BJP’s Rajendra Bhanmu, Congress’s Amit Ola and independent candidate Rajendra Gudha.
Jhunjhunu has been under the control of Congress for the last two decades. Brijendra Ola, father of Congress candidate Amit Ola, had been winning the last four assembly elections continuously. In the last Lok Sabha elections, Congress had fielded him. Brijendra Ola had won the MP election by a huge margin of votes. When this seat became vacant, Congress gave the ticket to Brijendra Ola’s son Amit Ola. But this time his strategy went wrong.
Minority community seems unhappy with Congress
Other contenders for Amit Ola’s ticket and the minority Congress, which is the biggest vote bank here, were unhappy with Amit Ola’s entry into the election fray. This time he had demanded a ticket but Congress, carrying forward the tradition of familyism, gave the ticket to the son of MP Brijendra Ola. It is believed that upset with this, this vote bank of Congress has shifted towards independent candidate Rajendra Gudha. This may cause a big blow to Congress here.
After 11 years, BJP is fighting elections in a single-minded manner.
This time, after 11 years, BJP has fought the elections in a single-minded manner. In the last three assembly elections, she was marginalized due to rebellion. Although voices of rebellion were raised this time too, the top BJP leaders controlled it in time and convinced the rebel Bablu Chaudhary and brought him back to their camp. BJP seems to be getting a big benefit from this. Although the traditional Rajput vote bank of BJP has also shifted a little towards the indigenous candidate Rajendra Gudha, but his numbers are said to be very less.
After a long time, a triangular contest took place in Jhunjhunu.
