BJP is preparing to enter the electoral fray in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections with a new political equation
The BJP is taking steps towards implementing PM Modi's basic mantra 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas' not only up to the slogan but at the ground level. In this episode, BJP is preparing to give tickets to more than a dozen minority candidates in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections so that the Muslim majority seats can be fed.
With the completion of 9 years of the Modi government, the BJP has gathered with full vigor in Mission-2024. BJP has set a target of winning 400 plus seats in 2024 elections.
This goal of the party can be achieved only if it wins 66 minority-dominated seats in the country. In such a situation, the BJP has started its preparations with the aim of winning one-third of the 66 minority-dominated seats. Wayanad seat in Kerala is also included in this list, from where Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was elected MP.
BJP strategists believe that if the party has to win more than 400 Lok Sabha seats, special attention will have to be paid to the 66 minority-dominated seats in the country.
These are the seats where Muslim and Christian voters are more than 30 percent. The party has identified 66 minority-dominated seats in 15 states of the country and is preparing accordingly.
However, in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP was able to win many of these minority-dominated seats, but the margin of victory on them was very small.
In such a situation, BJP wants to hoist the flag of victory on the seats occupied by it as well as on other seats. That is why the high command has asked the Muslim leaders of BJP to focus on all these seats.
Out of the 66 minority-dominated seats that the BJP is eyeing, 13 are in UP, which is Muslim-dominated, while Bihar has four Lok Sabha seats.
UP includes Saharanpur, Kairana, Rampur, Bareilly, Nagina, Moradabad, Meerut, Muzaffarnagar, Bijnor, Sambhal, Amroha, Bahraich, Shravasti seats.
