State Election Commissioner GK Rao on Wednesday said that ruling BJP entered into Panchayat by-election in Tripura by winning 113 out of 130 gram panchayat seats. He said that BJP also won five out of seven Panchayat Samiti seats.

The Indigenous Peoples Front of Tripura (IPFT), an ally of BJP won nine gram panchayat seats, the SEC said.

Rao said that opposition Congress and CPI-M won four gram panchayat seats respectively.

The by-election for the 132 gram panchayat seats and seven Panchayat Samiti seats was held on September 30. The state election commission declared for re-polling in two gram panchayat seats in Khowai block of Khowai district on October 5 and results would be announced on October 7, Rao told.

State Election Commissioner had announced the by-elections for 3,207 Gram Panchayat seats, 161 Panchayat Samiti seats and 18 seats of Zilla Parishad on 1 September 2018.

The by-election was necessitated as a large number of Panchayat Samiti members resigned after the BJP-IPFT government assumed office on March 3.

Officials said that the BJP had won more than 96 percent of the seats, where the by-election was announced without the election as the opposition parties did not file any nomination papers in those seats.

Amit Shah to visit Chennai on 9 July to finalise BJP's Tamil Nadu strategy for 2019 Lok Sabha election

BJP president Amit Shah will visit Chennai on 9 July to prepare the state unit for the 2019 Lok Sabha polls in Tamil Nadu as part of his nationwide tour, party national general secretary, P Muralidhar Rao said in Coimbatore on Wednesday.

As part of his visit, Shah will spend time with senior party leaders, who have been asked to prepare papers on the future strategy to be adopted, he told reporters.

He would gather inputs like how the party should approach voters in each constituency before finalising the strategy for the 2019 polls, which are very important for the BJP, Rao said.

Shah would meet prominent people and well wishers of BJP, and also those in charge at the booth level and also other office bearers, with whom he would share the party's target for the next five months.

Rao said politics in Tamil Nadu are now on the threshold of a new era, as old leaderships of parties which have ruled for the last 50 years have changed.

Stating that BJP was doing the same groundwork for the polls nationwide as in Tamil Nadu, he said the BJP president is travelling to every state to take stock of the situation.

Referring to the 12 May Assembly polls in Karnataka, he said though BJP could not form the government in the state, the number of seats it won had grown manifold from 40 to 104, while that Congress had been reduced from 122 to 78 and the JD(S), from 42 to 37.

"This was what we wanted in south India. After this victory, Congress as a national party has disappeared from the south. It has lost Kerala... decades back it lost its position in Tamil Nadu... it was decimated in Andhra Pradesh and lost power in Telangana. As a national party, it is only the BJP which is capable of becoming a player in south India," he said.

Therefore, the 2019 election was crucial and important for the BJP, which is taking its poll preparation for Tamil Nadu very seriously, he said.

Asked whether he saw challenges in the run up to the 2019 elections, Rao said the party would be more formidable.

"I do not rule out an alliance. At the national level also, the number of parties will increase, but not come down," he said.

If Election Commission decides on simultaneous polls, Telangana may prefer snap poll to Assembly

If Election Commission decides on simultaneous polls, Telangana may prefer snap poll to Assembly

Election Commission of India

The term of Telangana Assembly will end on June 8, 2019. That means EC is empowered to hold polls to TS Assembly any time after Dec 8, 2018.

If at all the Election Commission of India wants to hold polls to the Assemblies of the states, whose terms will be ending in the second half of 2018 or in the first half of 2019, simultaneously with Lok Sabha elections, Telangana too may duly witness “early” polls irrespective of the state government’s decision. 

The reason for this opinion is that Section 14(2) of the Representation of People Act which empowers EC to hold elections to any State Assembly at any time earlier than six months prior to the expiry of the term of that particular House without its dissolution. Thus, EC can notify elections to the Lok Sabha as well as State Legislative Assemblies whose term will end between December this year and June next year.

Besides Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Odisha and Mizoram are the States whose Assemblies’ term would end in this six-month period. The term of the present Lok Sabha will end on June 3, 2019.  That means EC can hold LS polls any day after Dec 3, 2018. Thus, it can also hold elections to the Assemblies of these States, six months prior to the end of the normal term of the respective Houses anytime after Dec 3.  

The term of Telangana Assembly will end on June 8, 2019. That means EC is empowered to hold polls to TS Assembly any time after Dec 8, 2018. If it decides to hold simultaneous polls after Dec 8, TS government will have to accept it.

If the TS government wants polls earlier than Dec 8, the State Cabinet will have to recommend to the Governor dissolution of the House. 

Against this backdrop, according to TRS sources, Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is of the view that a decision on going in for Assembly polls as per schedule or earlier should be taken depending on the “move” of the Prime Minister who is in favour of holding simultaneous elections in the country.

“If Lok Sabha and Assembly polls are held at a time, the CM thinks, the pro-Modi and anti-Modi waves, along with other national level issues might influence the State Assembly poll. KCR wants the electoral battle in the State to be focused on local issues, development programmes and welfare measures being implemented by his government. Hence his preference for separate State Assembly polls,” sources told Express.

Another argument doing the rounds in TRS circles is that Assembly polls will be held in Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, where Congress is the main opposition party, in coming December/January.

Holding Assembly polls in TS much earlier might incapacitate the Congress and prevent it from marshalling all its men and resources for a poll fight in TS. Further, if TS Assembly elections are held much ahead of Lok Sabha polls, the TRS can win more LS seats as it can fully concentrate on parliamentary constituencies.

Thus, if the EC is for holding simultaneous polls, KCR might either opt for Assembly polls in October/November by dissolving the House after holding the monsoon session by end of July. If the EC is for holding LS polls in April/May 2019, then also, the CM might prefer the polls to be conducted much prior to the original schedule. 

This might happen in December as the second round of Rythu Bandhu cheque distribution to farmers will be taken up in November (for Rabi season). Besides, Mission Bhagiratha, construction of double bedroom houses for the poor and other flagship schemes of his government are expected to be completed by then.

KCR not in favour of simultaneous polls

Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is learnt to be of the view that if at all the Centre wants to go for simultaneous polls to Lok Sabha along with State Assemblies, whose terms will end between Dec 2018 and June 2019, the Telangana State Assembly should have polls prior to that. This is to avoid the Modi factor which may influence Telangana poll outcome. The Chief Minister wants Assembly polls to be fought on his government’s development and welfare schemes.
