Leader of opposition in the Bengal Assembly and the BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari on Sunday blamed the overconfidence of party’s several leaders for BJP’s defeat in the West Bengal Assembly elections concluded on May 2.

Speaking at the party meeting in Chandipur area of Purba Medinipur district, Adhikari said the BJP lost because of several leaders’ overconfidence that the party would get over 170 seats. However, the party leaders set targets, but did not work towards achieving them, Adhikari said.

The BJP did well in the first two phases of West Assembly polls following which several BJP leaders became smug and overconfident and believing that the BJP will secure 170-180 seats in the elections, but they did not do the groundwork. Blaming the party’s poor ground work during Bengal polls, he said continuing ground work was equally important as setting up targets, which was realistic but needed hard work.

The BJP had managed to secure win 77 seats in the West Bengal elections held in April-May this year while Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress came to power for a third consecutive term winning 213 of the 294 seats. The Trinamool Congress secured win despite a high-profile campaign from the BJP that saw several top leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, making repeated claims that the BJP would win over 200 seats.

A trusted lieutenant of Banerjee, Suvebdu Adhikari, who had joined the BJP months ahead of the Bengal pols, however, could flaunt a personal success as he defeated Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in the Nandigram constituency.

Meanwhile, reacting to Adhikari’s comment on Sunday, Trinamool Congress spokesperson Kunal Ghosh accused him of living in a fool’s paradise asking why is he finding fault with others? He also accused Adhikari for not knowing the pulse of Bengal, Trinamool does. The Trinamool Congress leader credited social welfare projects introduced by Banerjee for the party’s win in the elections.

Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav, submitted his nomination for the Kannauj Lok Sabha constituency ahead of tomorrow’s second round of voting. In front of Ram Gopal Yadav and other party leaders, the chief of the SP, who had previously contested the seat in 2000, 2004 and 2009, submitted the nomination.

Speaking with media, Ram Gopal Yadav said that SP would win the seat by a huge margin. The BJP candidate might lose his deposit in the seat, he said.

The Samajwadi Party has completely reversed its earlier plan to field former Mainpuri MP Tej Pratap Singh Yadav as their candidate, which is a significant political development.

Earlier, Akhilesh Yadav told reporters, people will find out when the nomination takes place, in reference to the speculations that he will contest for the seat. The historic victory of Kannauj is the subject of inquiry.

The former chief minister continued, the people have decided that the India bloc is coming as the future and the BJP will be history in this election.

Notably, elections for the Kannauj seat are scheduled for May 13, which would intensify the political drama that is now playing out in Uttar Pradesh. Previously regarded as the Samajwadi Party’s stronghold, the seat was lost by the party in the 2019 election when Subrat Pathak of the BJP won with a resounding victory.

The candidates competing for the following Uttar Pradesh seats will find out their destiny in the second round of voting, which is scheduled for tomorrow, Amroha, Meerut, Mathura, Baghpat, Aligarh, Ghaziabad, Gautam Buddh Nagar, and Bulandshahar.

Notably, two Bollywood celebrities running as BJP candidates in the second round are Hema Malini from Mathura and Arun Govil from Meerut. There are 91 contestants from UP competing in the second phase.

The seats in Gautam Buddha Nagar and Mathura are up for grabs, with a maximum of 15 applicants per seat. In Bulandshahr, six candidates are vying for the presidency. There are twelve contenders running in Amroha, eight in Meerut, seven in Baghpat, and fourteen in Ghaziabad and Aligarh.
