Kolkata : ‘Ab ki bar 200 paar ‘ , based on the report of the party organisation, the Bengal BJP took the field to implement this slogan in last bidhan sabha election, 2021. The dream was to capture the power of Bengal , but the reality in vain . In terms of result, the bengal bjp could not even reach the triple digits. So, they are trying to calculate before the next loksabha election . BJP’s central committee wants to rely more on survey’s commissioned by non- govormental organisation on ticket distributi on in bengal than internal organisational reports.
In the other words, padma camp is following the PK model shown by Mamata Baanerjee in last loksabha election ,2021 . BJP won 18 seats from Bengal in 2019 loksabha election. Now their target is 25 in the upcoming loksabha election. Such is the demand of West Bengal BJP president Sukanta Mazumder . He said that BJP will win atleast 25 seats in 2024 lokabha poll. Amit Shah, JP Nadda wants to know the seat chart by conducting a survey by private survey organisation to find out how much the claims about the organisational authority of the party in Bengal match with the reality. Then the task of selection candidates will be given. According to the party sources, survey work will be conducted in 42 constituencies. Among these 24 weak constituencies identified, the survey agency asked to pay special attention, so that the party can win the next pools.
The agency has started the survey work in various constituencies. One thing is clear that the central leadership of BJP can not trust blindly the Bengal BJP team for 2024 loksabha election.
However, Bengal BJP president Sukanta Mazumder said that this kind of survey by private survey agency is not new this year, such survey done before. Candidates will be selected by comparing the survey report of the private survey team and the party’s organisational report of the team.
Jagannath Sarkar, state BJP vice-president and member of parliament of the state said that there is no other cause for concern survey being conducted by third party to select candidates for the loksabha elections. Rather, the true picture of how popular the present MP’S will be in their own constituency. Before this, a survey was done by a private organiation in BJP . will be done later also. All work is done according the rules of the party. But the party”s grassrootworkers ,however are not satisfied with such servey.
