In a move that can strengthen its prospects of BJP led alliance ahead of the Lok Sabha elections, Nishad party leader and Gorakhpur MP, Praveen Nishad has now joined the Amit Shah led party.
Praveen Kumar Nishad won the Gorakhpur seat, by-election with the margin of 21,961 vote as SP & Nishad Party joint candidate. He is the son of Sanjay Nishad, founder of Nishad Party. This seat was vacated by Yogi Adityanath after becoming the CM of Uttar Pradesh.
With the alliance of SP and BSP pitted to a strong competition to BJP in the political hotbed of the country, Uttar Pradesh, the latter is doing all it can to garner enough support base to maintain the same assailable performance of 2014 elections, where it won a landslide 73 out of 80 Lok Sabha seats in the state.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
