All three parties, Aam Aadmi Party, Congress and BJP, fielded candidates for mayor.
Balwan Kariwal, Chandigarh. As soon as the nomination process for the Mayor elections has been completed, the manipulation of councilors has intensified. After the filing of nomination papers, now all the major political parties are busy collecting victory figures and finalizing the strategy. The political equations between BJP, Congress and Aam Aadmi Party seem to be changing continuously, due to which the contest is becoming interesting.
BJP's efforts to ensure solid votes intensified
BJP fears that on the election day, Congress and Aam Aadmi Party may forget their mutual differences and unite strategically. Keeping this possibility in mind, BJP has already started efforts to ensure solid votes of its support. Constant contact is being maintained with councilors at the party level and preparations are being made to deal with any kind of internal dissatisfaction.
AAP keeps an eye on angry BJP councilors
On the other hand, Aam Aadmi Party is also keeping an eye on the angry councilors of BJP and has intensified efforts to contact them. According to party sources, there is dissatisfaction among many councilors regarding the leadership and working style, a strategy is being worked out to capitalize on it.
Cross voting directly means direct conflict with the party.
The biggest feature of this election is that this time cross voting will not be easy in the voting process. If any councilor votes beyond the party line, he will have to do so publicly by raising his hand. In such a situation, cross voting is considered to directly mean open confrontation with one's political party and putting future politics at risk.
Congress is trying to take advantage of the changed situation
Congress is also trying to take full advantage of the changed situation. After the possibility of alliance is over, Congress leaders say that many councilors of Aam Aadmi Party wanted to join Congress earlier also, but due to alliance coordination, this was not possible. Now there is no political compulsion and the party is openly trying to create new equations.
In this sequence, Congress councilors, becoming the proposer, have filed nomination papers for the post of Deputy Mayor from Aam Aadmi Party councilor Ramchandra Yadav. This is being seen as a strategic initiative of the Congress, which has increased the chances of more political reshuffles in the coming days.
Overall, after the nomination, the mayor election has now moved towards numbers and strategic manipulations, where the final decision will test political discipline and mutual trust on the day of voting.
