BJP Gains Upper Hand in Chamba Panchayati Raj Elections as Congress Considers Alternative Strategy

Chamba: After the bugle was sounded for the Panchayati Raj elections, the BJP seems to be one step ahead of the Congress party. BJP leaders were seen in the nomination process along with party supported candidates in the municipal elections. Congress leaders were seen absent during this time. The list of candidates for the Zila Parishad elections has been released by the BJP. On the other hand, now the leaders of the Congress party are saying to field candidates in the elections by mutual consent instead of the party symbol. The list of candidates fielded by the BJP in the election campaign is now expected to increase the infighting. Those who have been associated with the party for a long time and whose names are not in the party list at the last moment have been hurt. Now only time will tell which BJP manages to wave its saffron in the 11 posts of the Zila Parishad or the Congress manages to win under its strategy.
