‘Wild card’ entry: Samvidhan bachao narrative strikes chord with voters

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 5 June 2024
The term "Constitution" emerged unexpectedly during the election campaign, overshadowing conventional issues at various points. The opposition was quick to seize this opportunity, cleverly portraying the BJP's goal of exceeding 400 seats as a sinister plan to dismantle the reservations system by altering the Constitution. This accusation aligned seamlessly with Rahul Gandhi's stated strategy of uniting Muslims, OBCs, and Dalits against a minority of the privileged, often interpreted as upper castes and middle classes.

Maharashtra Election Results: Adani and Dharavi Issues Fail in MH Election | Mahayuti | BJP |

In the Maharashtra elections, the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance is emerging as a strong winner. Despite the heated debate around the Dharavi issue and Adani's involvement, these topics did not resonate with voters. High-profile leaders like Rahul Gandhi, Uddhav Thackeray, and Aditya Thackeray raised various allegations, but these issues failed to sway the electorate in the way they were expected to. With the Mahayuti securing a significant victory, the political landscape of Maharashtra remains firmly in the hands of the BJP and its allies. #MaharashtraElectionResult #MaharashtraElection2024 #ElectionResultLive #MaharashtraElectionResults2024 #AssemblyElectionResults #MaharashtraAssemblyElectionResult #LiveElectionResult #MaharashtraResultsLive #ElectionResults2024 #MaharashtraPolls2024 #LiveResultsMaharashtra #MaharashtraAssemblyResults #ElectionResultUpdates #MaharashtraVotes2024 #AssemblyPollsResults ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.336~GR.122~
