These 3 big gestures increased political heartbeats

Akhilesh Yadav's Delhi plan

Three such big things have happened in the last few days, which have fueled speculations about early elections. The first among these is Akhilesh Yadav's visit to Delhi. On June 8, a big meeting of the opposition alliance (INDIA block) was held in Delhi, in which SP chief Akhilesh Yadav also attended. Just before this, Rahul Gandhi held a meeting with big Dalit and backward leaders of UP and discussed further strengthening the PDA formula of SP.

BJP's 'Bengal Model'

In Lucknow, BJP's Organization General Secretary Dharampal Singh, in a meeting with 98 district presidents of the party, clearly said that this time West Bengal election model will be adopted in UP. Under this, 'booth guardians' are being deployed at a very fast pace at 1.76 lakh booths in the state.

Election mode of leaders

CM Yogi has started laying the foundation stone of projects worth crores by visiting the districts. Ministers have been asked to immediately camp in the districts under their charge. According to media reports, on the other hand, Akhilesh Yadav has internally finalized the names of about 200 candidates, so that the list can be released immediately in case of shortage of time. At the same time, Mayawati and Om Prakash Rajbhar have also started finalizing their respective in-charges and candidates.

3 big reasons for holding early elections in UP

1. Pressure from census and election staff

Census work is going on in the country. A large number of government employees are on duty for this. The same administrative machinery is used to conduct elections also. In such a situation, if both the works are done simultaneously, additional pressure on the administration may increase.

2. Timing of board exams

UP Board, CBSE and ICSE examinations are held in February and March. Lakhs of teachers remain engaged in examination duty. If elections are also held during this period then handling the arrangements can become a challenge.

3. Fear of inflation and economic recession

In the coming days, due to the situation around the world, the impact of inflation and economic recession may be more clearly visible on the ground. Experts say that if resentment increases among the public regarding inflation in the last quarter of January-March, then the risk for the ruling BJP may increase. Bharatiya Janata Party would like to avoid this risk by holding elections before the impact of recession is visible on the ground.

What are the preparations of the Election Commission regarding UP elections?

When Election Commission officials were discussed about this entire matter, they said that the real picture will become clear after the publication of the voter list. Usually the final voter list comes in the middle of January. But if it is decided to hold elections earlier, then this time the Commission will publish the final voter list only by November. The Commission has full preparations to conduct elections even before time.
