The result of 5
states assembly election has now declared. The Indian National Congress except
Puduchery has encountered a big defeat in 4 states; namely, Asam West Bengal
Kerla and Tamilnadu. The congress lost its regime in Asam and Kerla; and the poll results are bad than ever before
in Tamilnadu and West Bengal.
The congress in Kerala emerged in only 23 seats out of 140 in spite of
alliance till noon; the cong candidates were leading in 23 out of the 126
assembly seats of Assam; the congress has lost here its power.
The congress alliance
in keral had taken the government power from Left. The working genre of CM
Ooman Chandi was continuously in protest by opposition. Mr Tarun Gogoi, the
chief minister since past 15 years, was unresponsive to the development work in
state. The atmosphere against the ruling cong government in both states played
a role to ouster it from power.
That the cong after
its alliance had to face the Left in Kerla -- go together the Left in West
Bengal was very costly. The cadre base left parties could not generate a
confidence on the attitude of congress. The love and hate relationship could
not emerge between the cong and Left. This was the chief cause that the
congress could mere secure 40 of the 294 assembly seats in Bengal, and has lost
power in Kerala.
As the assembly
election was going on, the central leadership of congress was puzzled by other
causes. At the hours of preparation, the central leadership was wasting its
time in national herald case; Augusta West Land chopper deal scam during the
election; and shouting of anti-national slogans in JNU; and the matter suicide
committing by Rohith Vemula in Hyderabad university took time for politicizing
the issue.
The continued visit
of Rahul Gandhi had no local issues; only the issues of central government and
self clarification for the allegations were running on the stage there. The
congress leadership was wasting time to put the clarification of allegations
during the election campaign.
Whether it may be the
alliance with the regional party; or the attacking genre of poll campaign, the
congress president Sonia Gandhi and the vice president, Rahul Gandhi both had
no response of Modi and Shah Strategies. That the issues by BJP posed in Assam
made tightlipped congress. The congress leadership was disturbed in targeting the
PM Modi and the BJP even in the stronghold areas of other states.
The alliance in
Tamilnadu with DMK congress could not add double digits in its seats. The state
results of election may be in the favour of different parties, but all these
have no matching with political thoughts of congress.
