Haryana News Desk !!! Congress and BJP are busy finalizing the names of candidates for Haryana Assembly Elections 2024. Meanwhile, in the Congress CEC meeting, Rahul Gandhi has surprised everyone by mentioning Aam Aadmi Party. It is reported that Rahul Gandhi has sought opinion from Congress leaders in the meeting on alliance with Kejriwal in Haryana elections. He has asked his leaders to give feedback. Even before this, Congress and Aam Aadmi Party have fought the Lok Sabha elections together in Haryana. In such a situation, the picture regarding the alliance may be clear by the next meeting of the CEC. Let us know what are its political implications?
Senior Haryana Congress leader and Lok Sabha MP Kumari Selja has rejected the alliance. Last month, she had said in an interview that her party is in a strong position in the state and will contest the elections on its own. In such a situation, Rahul Gandhi’s talk of alliance has created a difficult situation for the local leaders of Haryana. At the same time, Kejriwal, who came out of jail for campaigning during the Lok Sabha elections, had announced to contest elections on all 90 assembly seats of Haryana.
How many seats will Rahul Gandhi give to AAP?
In such a situation, only time will tell how effective Rahul Gandhi’s alliance bet will be. There are 90 assembly seats in the state. If there is an alliance between Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party and Congress, who will benefit? Rahul Gandhi feels that Congress is no longer as strong as it used to be. This can also be a reason. If there is an alliance, Aam Aadmi Party will contest elections on at least 25 seats. All these seats can also be non-Jat i.e. OBC community dominated. Congress is struggling with factionalism in Haryana. In such a situation, Congress does not want to take any risk in Haryana like Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh. Perhaps that is why Rahul Gandhi has asked to explore the possibilities of alliance with Kejriwal before the Haryana elections.
Alliance is the solution to BJP’s non-Jat politics
The question is also whether Congress is forming an alliance with Kejriwal to counter BJP’s non-Jat politics. Rahul Gandhi wants to form an alliance with Kejriwal to get non-Jat votes. Jat votes are likely to be divided between Congress, INLD and JJP. In such a situation, if Congress does not get the support of non-Jat votes, the party may lose the elections in the state. That is why Rahul Gandhi is insisting on forming an alliance. Dalit, OBC and general votes of Haryana can go to BJP’s account. Keeping this in mind, Rahul Gandhi is emphasizing on alliance politics.
