Have been rolling out monthly political commentary for almost a year now and I’m going to end this with results of parliamentary polls in May 2024. The battle is hotting up and the scenario changing very fast. For next two months i.e. till May 2024 on public demand I will be rolling out the weekly countdown, covering the key actions of the leading party (parties if one is willing to accept that there is a contest) and who stands where in run up to the polls
Is the field actually wide open – read out to find out
#VM view – India elects a new Parliament in 2024 – seat projection in today’s scenario
Caveat – I am not a qualified psephologist, I carry psephology as a hobby and a passion. This is just an assessment basis my own assumptions and data points I have come across on electronic media, some websites and what I’ve observed basis the opinion being expressed by spokespersons across party line
Indeed I have used the vote percentage garnered by a parties in last held assembly polls and last parliamentary elections held in 2019 to make it a bit more scientific. Reading a political post people inadvertently tend to attribute the same to political allegiance of the writer and at times the writer even gets trolled
Quite often I’ve written posts inclined towards BJP and faced the music from Congress supporters and vice versa. As stated in the past I am not answerable to any individual for my political allegiance and my idea of writing the political posts is to present an objective analysis to my readers. The idea is to share the outcome of my passion with readers’ group who are interested in politics and at times pose this question to me
I may have voted for BJP or for Congress, I may have pressed or going to press NOTA even, this post has nothing to do with that. Naysayers are free to equate me with Rajdeep or Barkha or Arnab, I don’t mind. The idea here is to just bring forth the facts that are going to give direction to the political environment prevailing at the moment, basis my understanding
As a matter of fact even this time there is no competition for the ruling alliance and the opposition is just trying to put it’s own house in order as a step towards 2029, a time by when many of the erstwhile and current stalwarts would have gone down into books of history
