AAP’s dream to make inroads into Hindi heartland Failed
Chandigarh: The Aam Aadmi Party’s ambitions of gaining a political foothold in the Hindi heartland seems to have been cut short after the party has been unable to win a single seat in any of the state Assembly elections, the results for which were declared today.
The party, in spite of an aggressive campaign by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann along with party supremo Arvind Kejriwal, has not only drawn a blank in the elections, but also has not even managed a 1 per cent vote share in any of the three states – Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh.
Data available from the Election Commission of India shows that the vote share of AAP in Madhya Pradesh is 0.54 per cent where the party fielded 70 candidates; it is 0.38 per cent in Rajasthan where AAP fielded 88 candidates and is 0.93 per cent in Chhattisgarh where AAP fielded 57 candidates.
This is for the first time that the party has failed to open its account in the elections it has contested. After the party’s stupendous victory in Punjab, where they won 92 seats in 2022, the party’s national ambitions got wings and the party won two seats in Goa and five in Gujarat.
