Congress Faces Crisis After Poor Delhi Election Results

 RAHUL GANDHI

The recent Delhi Assembly elections have left Congress in deep trouble, as the party failed to win even a single seat. This marks the third time in a row that Congress has scored zero in Delhi, raising serious concerns among party leaders. Many senior Congress leaders are now demanding urgent changes in the party's structure and strategy.

Growing Calls for Change

Several leaders within Congress believe that the party needs to rethink its approach. Congress MP Tariq Anwar has urged the leadership to clarify its political strategy and make necessary changes within the party. Similarly, senior leader Rashid Alvi has emphasized the importance of respecting all allies in the INDIA alliance if Congress wants to challenge the BJP effectively.

Alvi also expressed concerns about how the election results have affected the Muslim community in Delhi. He suggested that if Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) had worked together, the BJP could have been defeated. According to him, the party leadership must decide whether to continue contesting elections alone or form strong alliances.

BJP’s Response

The BJP has taken this opportunity to criticize Congress. BJP MP Anurag Thakur mocked Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and his party’s repeated failure in Delhi elections. He also pointed out that during Congress's rule, income tax rates were high, while the new tax system introduced by the BJP is more beneficial for the common people.

Impact on Punjab Politics

ARVIND KEJRIWAL

The Delhi election results have not only affected Congress but have also created uncertainty in Punjab politics. AAP leader and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal is reportedly worried, as his party suffered a major setback in its stronghold. With legal cases against AAP leaders still ongoing, Kejriwal’s position has become weaker.

There are growing speculations that Punjab might see mid-term elections. Some BJP and Congress leaders believe that if elections are not held early, Kejriwal might replace Bhagwant Mann as Punjab’s Chief Minister to strengthen his hold on the state.

The BJP has also accused Kejriwal of misusing Punjab’s government machinery during the Delhi elections. Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann actively campaigned for AAP in Delhi, but the party still lost wherever he campaigned. This has raised doubts about AAP’s future in Punjab and nationally.

What’s Next for Congress and AAP?

With Congress struggling to stay relevant and AAP facing an uncertain future, both parties need to rethink their strategies. If they want to challenge the BJP effectively, they might need to work together rather than compete against each other. The coming months will be crucial in shaping the political landscape of Delhi and Punjab.
