Local Election: Contenders flood on social media for Mayor’s chair, who will conduct the election?
Campaigning either by himself or through supporters
The process of urban body elections is continuously gaining momentum. Few days are left for the enrollment process to start. It may take time to get the ticket from the party, in such a situation all the contenders are active in social media with patriotism, public service and revolutionary slogans with their full preparation. Not only through their IDs, but also through their supporters, friends and relatives, these claimants are trying to create an atmosphere. Meanwhile, common people are also encouraging the contenders through the comment box. Meanwhile, it seems that the entire election will be held on social media only. Whether it is a party leader or an independent, everyone has the ghost of contesting elections. From the local level to the capital Bhopal and Delhi, many contenders are running that at least this time the party should shower the blessings of the ticket on them.
Everyone’s eyes are on the Mayor’s chair, then who will be responsible for conducting the election?
If we talk about BJP, then most of the big leaders here are eyeing the post of mayor. Be it an eminent doctor who has contested every election through medicine and social service, former ministers who lost the last election from the old city or Khanty BJP like them are all taking interest in the mayor’s chair. He is not showing any interest in taking up the responsibility of conducting elections. Such an important post which is of great importance according to the protocol of BJP. For the upcoming assembly elections, when this local election is being considered as the semi-final of power, during that time, who should take the responsibility of conducting the election, neither is there any discussion on it, nor does anyone seem to be eager to fall into this tussle.
Congress contenders are also running their claws here and there.
Congress is lucky this time in Jabalpur that it has dominance in 4 out of 8 assembly seats in Jabalpur. Three seats, North Central, West and East Vidhan Sabha are completely covered by the Municipal Corporation limits, in the fourth Bargi Vidhan Sabha also many wards of the Municipal Corporation are covered. Many Congress leaders, who are seen in many factions, are trying to contest for the mayor’s election. Looking at the urgency of the times, at the local level, they are feeling that this time the Congress government. The biggest difficulty is to come out with the name of the current president of the party unannounced. Due to this, the aspirations of many claimants seem to have been dashed from now on. Then those contenders did not give up their defeat in the ticket battle. They feel that like the BJP, the veteran leaders of the party may take some miraculous decision in their favor. Ward-wise, the workers who have been worshiping the Congress candidate in the last assembly elections till now, they are trying to get councilor ticket for themselves or their home Lakshmi according to the reservation.
it’s time for change
Earlier elections were held in early 2015. At that time the general public was not active on social media so much. Just say that according to the speed of the internet, the buttons of the mobile used to be chatter. But now the speed may be 4G, but many people have a 5G version handset. Therefore, from Facebook, Instagram, Twitter to WhatsApp groups of the locality and society, the election procession has started.
Aam Aadmi Party is busy in the mango season
This time the battle for city power is taking place during the mango season, the king of fruits. The public is also happy because by eating mangoes it means who gets into the hustle and bustle of counting trees. But this time a party is also engaged in thrashing fiercely in the field of elections. He is Mango Main i.e. Aam Aadmi Party, Lok Sabha Speaker of the party who is himself claiming for the post of mayor. This time we are working hard to connect the youth to the party. Through social media itself, he has made the interested youths to fill the form to join the party. The claim is that after seeing the form, these councilors will declare the candidate. The news of the party has also created a stir, which claimed that if the party does not give a ticket to a former minister from the BJP, then he will switch sides and join the Aam Aadmi Party. Will jump into the fray to contest the mayor’s election with the broom of ‘AAP’.
Vacancy also for training ‘Kaho informer or Hariram Nai’
In the midst of all this, the vacancy is also open for the training of Hariram Barber in the camps of the contenders. The qualification for this is that there should be a sit-in meeting between every claimant of the brother. So that whatever the opponent or bird is, the strategy of eating inside it can be found out. With the distribution of tickets, the work of such Jagga detectives is going to increase.
