SHUBHAKARAN RELYING ON ‘SYMPATHY’ WHILE OLA ON HIS FAMILY’S GOODWILL

Jhunjhunu: Former Udaipurwati MLA Shubhakaran Choudhary is the BJP’s candidate from the Jhunjhunu Lok Sabha seat, while Congress has fielded four-time Jhunjhunu MLA and former minister Brijendra Ola. There is a direct contest between Congress and BJP on this seat. If we talk about the current political and caste equation for this seat, both candidates belong to the Jat community. The Jhunjhunu Lok Sabha seat is Jat-dominated, but the Muslim community, Saini, and Rajput also play a decisive role. Till the last day of nomination, 10 candidates from Jhunjhunu Lok Sabha have submitted nomination forms. But the contest is directly between Congress and BJP.

Army recruitment and Yamuna water major election issues
Most of the families from Jhunjhunu are associated with the army and farming class.

After the introduction of the Agniveer scheme in the army, there has been a decrease in youth getting employment. While the BJP is claiming to bring water under the Yamuna Water Agreement MoU, the Congress is calling it an election stunt.

Report card of outgoing MP
Voters’ opinion regarding MP Narendra Khichad for the last five years is that Khichad maintained distance from the public most of the time and could not present the major problems of the district well in Parliament. He asked for the MP ticket for his daughter-in-law, Zila Pramukh Harshini Kulhari. However, the contribution of MP Khichad to railway services was better.
