The Block Panchayat President Election results in UP show an indication of the Assembly Elections to be held in 2022. BJP has hoisted the flag in the Block Panchayat President election. In the election that was held on Saturday, BJP has contested 735 Block Panchayats out of 825 and won 648 seats. So, it is clear that if the anti-BJP oppositions cannon able to maintain the ‘Federal Front’ the result of the Assembly Election 2022 in UP will be almost like this.

The Samajwadi Party has also claimed to score a century in the Block Panchayat President election. BJP’s ally Apna Dal (S) and independents have also captured more than 70 seats. Samajwadi Party’s account has not been opened in 14 districts, where the BJP candidates have won elections in all Block Panchayats.

In the election held for the post of president in 825 area Panchayats of the state, 349 Block Heads were elected unopposed. Out of these 349 posts, 334 BJP candidates were elected unopposed Block Heads. Voting for the post of chairman in 476 Block Panchayats in all 75 districts started at 11 am on Saturday.

The counting of votes took place after voting till 3 pm. By three-thirty the results had begun to come. Results came in all 476 District Area Panchayats by 6 pm. BJP Block Heads have been elected in 648 Block Panchayats.

Bombs, guns, sticks, rods, vandalism, beating of opposition candidates – all these incidents at Block Panchayat President Election in Uttar Pradesh reminded us of the West Bengal Panchayat Election in 2018. According to many, the violence in Uttar Pradesh may surpass incidents of West Bengal. A video of Unnao has come forward. It was seen that a Dalit candidate of Samajwadi Party was being kicked lying in the street. The Police forces are silent spectators standing in front of the ruling party supporters.

A clean sweep by BJP was reported in 14 districts

BJP has won elections in all the Area Panchayats of Lucknow, Varanasi, Ghaziabad, Agra, Badaun, Shahjahanpur, Shravasti, Gautam Buddha Nagar, Pilibhit, Kannauj, Banda, Mahoba, Lalitpur, Sonbhadra districts.

This is a clear indication that the anti-BJP alliance has unable to create an impact in the minds of the people. If the trend continues, BJP will collect a majority of the votes in the coming Assembly Elections in Uttar Pradesh. It is also a lesson for the anti-BJP parties like Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party, Indian National Congress, Rashtriya Lok Dal, Aam Aadmi Party, Communist Party of India, etc. to abstain from fighting election individually. If they fail to become united in maintaining the ‘Federal Front’ in India, BJP will take the advantage to retain the power in Uttar Pradesh Assembly Election in 2022.

The public trend in favour of BJP: CM Yogi Adityanath

Chief Minister Yogi said that the tendency of the people was that they were in favour of the BJP. The strategy of the party proved to be effective. We were also first in the District Panchayat President Election. BJP had fielded its candidates in 735 Blocks out of 825. In some places, both the workers were fighting for the BJP. We had given up a total of 90 seats. In the trends so far, BJP was winning more than 635 seats. This number would increase further. These were the seats connecting the associates.

BJP state president Swatantra Dev said that the victory we have got was the effect of the plans of CM Yogi Adityanath. Law and order were tight. Girls could leave at 12 o’clock tonight. There was no corruption anywhere. BJP has got a bumper victory. This was the hard work of all the workers.

Was that really true?

The political analysts say that there is a lack of unity among the anti-BJP parties in the Assembly Constituencies of UP. Not only in UP, anti-BJP parties are all scattered throughout different states in India. They have to learn lessons from the West Bengal Assembly Election 2021 where anti-BJP parties remained united for a common cause or agenda called ‘No Vote To BJP’. In UP, the Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party, Indian National Congress should have to take the pivotal role to make a common agenda to maintain the ‘Federal Front’ instead of fighting the election individually in Uttar Pradesh.
