According to the Election Commission of India, V Muraleedharan, the Union minister of state for external affairs, is trailing behind in the Lok Sabha elections from the Attingal constituency in Kerala.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) minister is lagging behind Congress MP Adoor Prakash and Communist Party of India (Marxist) member V Joy, early results show. As of 12:20 PM, the ECI shows that V Joy is ahead by 432 votes.

But he has held a number of posts within the party; from January 2010 until January 2015, he presided over the Kerala state unit. In the 2014 Lok Sabha election, the NDA’s vote share grew to 10.8% under his leadership as the BJP state president of Kerala, marking the first time it has crossed the double digits.

In April 2018, Muraleedharan, who was born into a Congress family in the Communist stronghold of Thalassery, was elected to the Rajya Sabha.

Prior to submitting his nomination for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, a group of students who had been evacuated from Ukraine during the conflict between the Union government and Russia gave him money for his security deposit.

The BJP fielded Sobha Surendran, an Attingal resident, in 2019, and she finished third with 14.43% of the vote. The party’s 2014 candidate, S Girija Kumari, received just 3.95% of the total votes cast.

After the delimitation in 2008, the Attingal Lok Sabha seat was created. On April 26, it held its second phase of elections, with 69.48% of the vote cast.

Beginning on April 19 and ending on June 1, there were seven phases to the Lok Sabha elections for 543 seats. With Narendra Modi as prime minister, the Bharatiya Janata Party is vying for an uncommon third term in power at the Centre.

BJP wants to gain ground in West Bengal and Odisha during the final round of the Lok Sabha elections.

Published

on

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Prime Minister Narendra Modi are making every effort to guarantee that the party wins a sizable portion of the 57 seats where elections are scheduled for June 1 in the last round of the current Lok Sabha polls.

Three rallies in Odisha and one in West Bengal will host speeches by Prime Minister Modi on Wednesday.

The party has been putting a lot of effort into growing its presence and solidifying its control over the political system in both states.

West Bengal saw the BJP win 18 seats in 2019, which was seen as a significant victory for the party that had little local support.

The BJP subsequently started waging a fierce campaign in the state to position itself as an alternative to the ruling TMC.

The party did well in the state’s 2021 assembly votes and went on to win 77 seats thanks to the intense campaign that started in 2019.

The BJP’s Suvendhu Adhikari, a former adviser to chief minister Mamata Banerjee, defeating her in her home borough of Nandigram, was the election’s high point.

Adhikari, who was regarded as Banerjee’s trustee lieutenant, is credited for having contributed to the BJP’s rise in support in the state, which was thought to have nothing in common with the party’s philosophy because it was a communist stronghold.

Now that the BJP is the main opposition in the state, its goal is to increase its number of Lok Sabha seats, which will prepare the way for the assembly elections in 2026.

The BJP hopes to win eight of the 21 Lok Sabha seats in 2019, more than tripling its current total. It also wants to prove that it is qualified to lead the state government.

Similar to West Bengal, where the Congress and Left parties are no longer seen as strong rivals, the BJP has established itself as the Biju Janata Dal (BJD)’s rival in Odisha.

Having won five consecutive terms in assembly elections, the BJD is sure to make a comeback.
