Voting for the second phase of the Gujarat Assembly ended at 5 pm on Monday. In a short while the exit polls of Gujarat and Himachal will start coming. Voting was held in Himachal on November 12 in a single phase. The results of both the states will come on December 8 i.e. after 72 hours. It will be decided that this time the BJP will make a comeback in both the places or the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) will win. Along with this, the polls for Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) elections will also come.
What were the results in Gujarat in 2017?
The tenure of the Gujarat Legislative Assembly ends on February 18, 2023, next year. In the 2017 elections, the BJP had won 99 out of 182 seats in the Gujarat Legislative Assembly. Congress had got 77 seats. After the elections, the BJP made Vijay Rupani the chief minister.
However, in September 2021, Bhupendra Patel was made the Chief Minister in place of Rupani. The cabinet was also reshuffled. Gujarat is also the home turf of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He has also been the CM here from 2001 to 2014. The BJP is in power here since 1995. Since then the Congress has not been able to make a comeback here. However, in 2017, the Congress gave a tough fight to the BJP.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s party AAP is also actively involved here. In such a situation, a triangular contest is being seen here. Now it remains to be seen that when the counting of votes will take place on December 8, will the BJP form the government for the record 7th time or will the Congress and AAP be able to make a dent in power.
2. Who will get power in the hill state of Himachal?
BJP-Congress direct contest in Himachal Pradesh
Voting was held on November 12 for 68 assembly seats in Himachal Pradesh. This time also the main contest is believed to be between BJP and Congress. Talking about the assembly elections held in 2017, out of 68 seats in the Himachal assembly, BJP had won 44 seats. Whereas, Congress had secured 21 seats. Jairam Thakur was made the Chief Minister.
The Congress had performed well in the by-elections held earlier this year. In such a situation, the Congress is claiming victory. The Aam Aadmi Party is also betting here. Now it has to be seen whose government will be formed on the day of counting of votes on 8th December. If the BJP returns, it will be the first time in the state’s 35-year history that a ruling party will form the government again.
On the other hand, if the Congress government is formed, then the trend of changing the government every five years will continue in the state. Whether the Aam Aadmi Party will be able to make a dent between the BJP and the Congress or not will also be decided on December 8.
