Reflects changing political climate in country: Congress on bypoll gains

By Economic Times - 2 months ago
The Congress party's recent victories in the Himachal Pradesh and BJP-ruled Uttarakhand assembly bypolls indicate a changing political climate in India. Congress wrested Manglaur from BSP and retained Badrinath amid BJP's aggressive tactics. Jairam Ramesh views these wins as reflecting a political shift. In Himachal Pradesh, Congress won Dehra and Nalagarh despite BJP's 'Operation Lotus,' bolstering their strength in the state assembly per Rajiv Shukla. Key wins for Congress included Kamlesh Thakur in Dehra and Hardeep Singh Bawa in Nalagarh, although BJP's Ashish Sharma secured Hamirpur. In Uttarakhand, Qazi Mohammad Nizamuddin won Manglaur and Butola triumphed over Rajendra Singh Bhandari in Badrinath. These were part of 13 assembly bypolls held recently across multiple states.
