Opposition unity: 26 opposition parties meet in Bengaluru after Maharashtra setback

Opposition parties are again holding a two-day meeting in Bengaluru. Dinner politics happened on Monday and now formal meeting on Tuesday. Congress leader KC Venugopal claims that twenty-six parties will attend the meeting. No matter how many parties are involved, Sharad Pawar and his daughter Supriya Sule will definitely attend this meeting because the latest and biggest blow the BJP has given is to them only.

The question is whether Sharad Pawar’s strength among the opposition parties is considered as much as before or not, despite the big split in the party!

Sharad Pawar and his daughter Supriya Sule will surely attend the meeting of opposition parties because the latest and biggest blow BJP has given is to them only.

Bihar’s Nitish Kumar was also apprehensive of the shock. Nitish Kumar’s one-hour meeting with Harivansh, Deputy Chairman of Rajya Sabha had further strengthened this apprehension, but nothing further happened. However, BJP was not going to achieve anything even by breaking Nitish Kumar’s JDU because BJP still does not have the numbers.

The matter of Maharashtra was different. There is a government of the BJP itself and by removing Ajit Pawar, the government has become stronger in terms of numbers. Well, it is being said that this time in Maharashtra, the BJP was not greedy for numbers as much as it got self-satisfaction by defeating Sharad Pawar, who is called and considered Chanakya of current politics.

However, by breaking the NCP in Maharashtra, the BJP has in a way plucked the ripe apple from the tree of opposition unity, but the opposition parties are still not going to accept defeat. They are getting They are thinking and something will emerge from this brainstorming. Whatever will come out, at least it will not benefit the BJP. There will be some loss or the other.

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has also reached Bengaluru to attend the meeting of the opposition.

If all the opposition parties together agree to put up candidates included in each Lok Sabha constituency, then definitely BJP may have to lose the seats won or lost by a small margin. The advantage of the included candidate is that those seats with less margin on which the opposition candidate had won can win by a huge margin, but the victory of the opposition candidate who lost by a smaller margin will be decided.

Anyway, BJP had won almost all the Lok Sabha seats in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat and Chhattisgarh. Whatever and how many votes the opposition gets here, it is going to be beneficial because BJP could not win 26 out of 25 seats in any state. So, if BJP loses even a single seat, it will be the loser.

It remains to be seen whether all the opposition parties together reach a consensus to field the included candidates or before reaching here they get entangled in their mutual differences and the train of opposition unity gets derailed!
