Congress has failed miserably in the UP assembly elections. His famous faces could not even get enough votes to be called respectable. One such name is of Urusa, daughter of Munavvar Rana. Congress had fielded Urusa from Unnao Ka Purwa seat.
Anil Kumar Singh of BJP has won from here. He defeated Uday Raj of SP. Both the candidates got more than one lakh votes. While Munavvar Rana’s daughter Urusa got less votes than NOTA.
Congress had played the women’s card this time. 40 percent of the tickets were given to women. The aim of the Congress was that it would be able to attract half the population by giving tickets to 40 percent women but it did not happen.
Congress had fielded Munavwar Rana’s daughter Urusa Imran Rana from Purwa seat of Unnao. Urusa has got only 1876 votes. More votes have gone to NOTA than this. 2609 people pressed the NOTA button.
BJP’s Anil Kumar Singh has won from here by securing 1 lakh 33 thousand 827 votes. Uday Raj of SP, who came second, got 1 lakh 2 thousand 373 votes.
This is the condition of the women candidates of Congress not only in Purva but also in many such seats about which Priyanka Gandhi Vadra herself had said that she is trying to give these women the strength to fight the situation by bringing them into politics. However, this reality did not appear to be happening on the ground.
Similarly, Congress had given ticket to Sadaf Zafar in the capital Lucknow Central seat. Sadaf, who came into the limelight during the CAA protest, could get only 2911 votes. Apart from this, the ticket was given to Neha Tiwari, sister of Khushi Dubey, who came in discussion with Vikas Dubey case from Kalyanpur seat of Kanpur. Neha got only 2283 votes.
