Assembly Election Result 2019

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In two of the major upsets in elections to four state assemblies, Telugu Desam Party of N Chandrababu Naidu has been ousted from Andhra Pradesh while in Sikkim, Pawan Kumar Chamling of Sikkim Democratic Front is set to lose power for the first time since 1994.

Meanwhile, the faction-ridden Congress-JD(S) coalition government in Karnataka was in trouble with the BJP sweeping the state. The BJP was ahead in 24 of the state’s 28 Lok Sabha seats, restricting Congress and JD-S to only four with even JD-S patriarch HD Deve Gowda staring at a defeat. A meeting of JD(S) leaders was going on at the residence of party chief HD Deve Gowda in Bengaluru, reported ANI.

The fate of Congress government in Madhya Pradesh was also under a cloud. The BJP was likely to move in for the kill and wean away a few of the MLAs from the minority Congress government.

Andhra Pradesh

As the early trends gave a clear majority to YSRCP in the Andhra Pradesh Assembly elections and also the Lok Sabha elections, Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu is likely to resign in the evening today.

Chandrababu Naidu is expected to submit his resignation to the Governor around 5 pm today.

Jaganmohan Reddy is likely to take oath as the next chief minister of Andhra Pradesh on May 30.

Among the 176 Andhra Pradesh Assembly seats, Jaganmohan Reddy’s YSRCP is leading in a whopping 149 seats while the ruling Telugu Desam Party (TDP) is leading in only 24 seats.

Meanwhile, the supporters of Jaganmohan Reddy have already printed a nameplate for him with chief minister written under his name.

As per the current trend available now, YSRPC is leading with 150 seats, while TDP is leading on 23 seats and others are leading with just 2 seats.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Sikkim Incumbent Chief Minister Pawan Chamling is leading both in Namchi-singhithang and Poklok-kamrang by 146 and 2,774 votes respectively. In Namchi-singhithang, he is leading against Sikkim Krantikari Morcha’s Ganesh Rai while in Poklok-kamrang he is ahead of Kharka Bahadur Rai of the same party. Chamling is head of Sikkim Democratic Front and also the longest serving chief minister in the country.

Often derided for his strong arm tactics, Pawan Kumar Chamling’s Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) has ruled Sikkim virtually uncontested and unquestioned for a much larger part of his 25 years in power. In 2014, SDF bagged 22 of the state’s 32 total seats in the legislative Assembly. But the million-dollar question is will he again sit on that coveted chief minister’s chair after 23 May?

As per the latest trends, challenger Sikkim Krantikari Morcha (SKM) is ahead of the ruling Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) in seven seats in the Sikkim assembly polls.

SDF, which is facing a strong anti-incumbent, is ahead only in three seats so far. SKM would need 17 seats to have a simple majority.

The Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) chief and state chief minister Pawan Kumar Chamling. Chamling was seeking re-election for the fifth term. Appearing at the dinner meeting of BJP national president Amit Shah on May 21 in New Delhi, Chamling seemed confident of returning to power even though his party this time had to face an uphill task against the odds mounted by a strong contender, the SKM.

While in the 2009 assembly polls, SDF could win in all the 32 seats, in 2014 though, it came as a shocker to the party when a new entrant, the SKM, wrested ten seats from it. SKM could make it possible not only by eroding nearly 11% vote share of the SDF but also took away almost the entire vote share of the Congress, which was 27.09% in the 2009 assembly elections. In the 2014 assembly polls, SKM recorded 40.8% of the state’s vote share. Aside from Tripura, Sikkim is another northeastern state where the Congress had lost a considerable percentage of its vote share to another party.

The Sikkim assembly also has a seat reserved for the state’s monks. The Sangha assembly seat has no physical jurisdiction but an MLA is elected by the monks registered with the state’s 51 monasteries. As per the state election office, 3,293 voters would elect the MLA from the Sangha seat. It also includes 69 nuns.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Mallikarjun Kharge vows to continue politics till his last breath to defeat BJP

The 81-year-old Congress leader was speaking at a election rally in Afzalpur and said that if the people did not vote for the Congress candidate, he would think that he did not have any place in Kalaburagi anymore.

Congress President M Mallikarjun Kharge on Wednesday appealed to the people of Kalaburagi to at least attend his funeral if they thought he worked for them even though they do not wish to vote for Congress in the ongoing Lok Sabha elections.

The 81-year-old Congress leader was speaking at a election rally in Afzalpur and said that if the people did not vote for the Congress candidate, he would think that he did not have any place in Kalaburagi anymore. The Congress President sought an emotional chord with the people of his home district of Kalaburagi, Karnataka

The grand old party has fielded Kharge’s son-in-law Radhakrishna Doddamani from Kalaburagi, against BJP’s sitting MP Umesh Jadhav. Kharge had won the Lok Sabha elections from Kalaburagi in 2009 and 2014, but lost in 2019. He appealed to the voters to vote for Congress but at least come to his funeral if they thought that he had done some work in Kalaburagi. Kharge added that he would continue in politics till his last breath to defeat the BJP and RSS ideology.

The Congress leader said he is born for politics and whether or not he contests the election, he will continue to strive till his last breath to save the Constitution and democracy of the country. He asserted that he will not retire from politics. Kharge said that retirement happens from a position but one should not retire from his/her principles. He said he is born to defeat the ideology of the BJP and RSS and not to surrender before them.

He advised Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, who shared the stage with him, to follow his principles. He said he had told Siddaramaiah many times that he may retire as CM or MLA, but he cannot retire from politics till he defeats the ideology of the BJP and RSS.

Nitin Gadkari says he’s better now after collapsing at election rally in Maharashtra’s Yavatmal

Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari collapsed while speaking at an election rally in Maharashtra’s Yavatmal on Wednesday afternoon. Fortunately, the senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader received prompt treatment and was able, after a brief pause, to get back up on stage and continue his speech.

A disturbing video of the incident – which was unfortunately streamed live on X (formerly Twitter), including by his own account – showed Nitin Gadkari being carried away by those on stage, many of whom rushed to form a shield around the BJP leader to give him, and those treating him, some privacy.

Nitin Gadkari took to X and informed that he felt uncomfortable due to the heat during the rally in Pusad, Maharashtra. But now he is completely healthy and is leaving for Varud to attend the next meeting. He thanked his supporters and well wishers for their love and good wishes.

Gadkari, who fought the elections in the first phase of voting as BJP’s candidate from Nagpur Lok Sabha seat, was campaigning for Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena leader Rajashree Patil in Yavatmal’s Pusad. Addressing the rally, the union minister said, he was confident that the people of Yavatmal district, which has a constant tendency towards development, will give victory to the BJP-Maha alliance, which believes in all-round development.

Gadkari posted on X that as the nation moves towards a developed India, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, significant work has been done in the last 10 years in the areas of roads and highways as well as health, education and other sectors across the country. He said many schemes of the central government were successfully extended to the rural areas. Due to this, along with the city, the people of the rural areas are also able to benefit from many important facilities.

The Yavatmal constituency along with Akola, Buldhana, Amravati, Hingoli, Wardha, Parbhani and Nanded in Maharashtra are scheduled to vote in the second phase of the Lok Sabha election on April 26.

PM Narendra Modi slams Congress over Sam Pitroda’s inheritance tax remarks, accuses Congress of intending to impose higher taxes

PM Modi was speaking at a public meeting in Chhattisgarh’s Surguja, where he alleged that the Congress wants to fill its own coffers by imposing ever higher taxes and not allowing people to pass on their hard-earned wealth to their children.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday launched a scathing attack on Congress after Sam Pitroda advocated for a US-style inheritance tax amid the ongoing debate over wealth redistribution. The comments have further fuelled an already-raging controversy over Rahul Gandhi’s promise to conduct a wealth survey if the Congress won the Lok Sabha election.

PM Modi was speaking at a public meeting in Chhattisgarh’s Surguja, where he alleged that the Congress wants to fill its own coffers by imposing ever higher taxes and not allowing people to pass on their hard-earned wealth to their children.

The Prime minister said the advisor (Sam Pitroda) of the prince and the royal family had said some time ago that more taxes should be imposed on the middle class.  He said the Congress party says that it will impose an inheritance tax, and it will also impose tax on the inheritance received from parents. PM Modi added the children will not get the wealth that their parents accumulate through their hard work, rather the Congress party will snatch it away from them.

PM Modi said Pitroda’s remarks have exposed the dangerous intentions of the Congress.  He took a veiled jibe at the Congress and said the party has only one mantra – to loot people zindagi ke sath bhi, zindagi ke baad bhi (in life and even after death).

 The prime minister did not take any names and targeted the Gandhi family and said, those people who considered the entire Congress party as their ancestral property and handed it over to their children, now do not want Indians to pass on their property to their younger generations.

Indian Overseas Congress chairman Sam Pitroda while talking to the media backed his party’s stand on redistribution of wealth and called for a policy for the same while citing the concept of inheritance tax prevailing in some American states.
