Shock to BJP in CM Dhami’s stronghold, independent candidate wins by so many votes

Haridwar: The election results of Pati Nagar Panchayat of Champawat district of Uttarakhand have sparked a new discussion in local politics. Let us tell you, in the election for the post of Nagar Panchayat President, independent candidate Narayan Lal has won by defeating Bharatiya Janata Party candidate Naveen Ram. The special thing is that Narayan Lal is the brother-in-law of popular singer and Indian Idol winner Pawandeep Rajan. His victory is being seen as a major political change in the region.

With how many votes did you win?

According to the results, Narayan Lal got a total of 738 votes, while BJP candidate Naveen Ram got 514 votes. With this, the independent candidate has captured the post of President by winning by a margin of 224 votes. Let us tell you that after the election results came out, an atmosphere of enthusiasm is being seen among the supporters.

How was the atmosphere before the results?

However, there was confusion for some time regarding the results during the counting of votes. Meanwhile, Narayan Lal’s supporters expressed their displeasure due to the delay in the formal announcement of the results of the post of President and the issuance of the victory certificate, but later when the victory certificate was handed over to him, the supporters took out a victory procession with drums and an atmosphere of celebration was visible in the entire area.

Result for councilor posts also announced

Meanwhile, the results of the councilor posts of four wards of Nagar Panchayat have also been declared. Let us tell you, Naval Pachauli from New Colony Ward, Bablu Patni from Jauladi Ward, Shanti Devi from Ranichowd Ward and Sangeeta from Poonakote Ward have won the post of councilor.

From the political point of view, this result is also considered important because Pati Nagar Panchayat comes under Lohaghat, the assembly constituency of Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami. In such a situation, the defeat of the BJP candidate has raised many questions at the local level. Let us tell you, in this election, voters gave more importance to the personal image and local connections of the candidate than to the party, which is believed to be the reason behind this victory. However, it will be interesting to see in the coming times in which direction the politics of the state moves.
