Congress Suffers Crushing Defeat in Gujarat Local Body Elections

New Delhi, તા.29: Congress has once again suffered a crushing defeat in the local body elections in Gujarat. This election of municipalities and panchayats held before the 2027 assembly elections in Gujarat is like a mini-assembly and the results of this election are going to be seen on the results of the elections next year. These elections, which are considered important for determining the condition and direction of the Congress, have proved that the Congress has become directionless, keeping the illusion of winning the elections only through statements and social media. More than one factor is responsible for the defeat of the Congress, but the most striking and important reason is the factionalism prevailing from the state to the village level, in addition to the selection of candidates and party funds. According to the order of the national leadership of the Congress, the decision to give the power of selection of candidates to the district president and the leaders of the region including the elected MLAs, not'good'but'my'stubbornness has proved to be suicidal for the Congress after the decade-long national convention of the Congress in Ahmedabad, including'strong horse races'on the national stage.
