JAIPUR
There are 17 seats in Hadauti region comprising of four districts, Bundi, Kota, Baran and Jhalawar, which were impacted by the crop loss and farmer suicides.
Agrarian distress was being said to be one the probable reasons behind the defeat of BJP in the elections in Rajasthan this time. The Congress had gone hammer and tongs after the BJP holding the party and its government led by Vasundhara Raje responsible for the alleged suicides of more than 250 farmers in the state.
However, a closer look at the wins and losses in the Hdauti region which was in the centre of the agrarian crisis in state reveals that the voters still placed their faith in the BJP, which was held responsible for the farmers’ death.
There are 17 seats in Hadauti region comprising of four districts, Bundi, Kota, Baran and Jhalawar, which were impacted by the crop loss and farmer suicides. BJP managed to bag 10 out of the 17 seats this time.
In Jhalawar, which is considered the bastion of outgoing chief minister Vasundhara Raje, and epicenter of farmer distress fuelled by a bumper garlic crop, Congress has not been able to secure a single seat. There are 4 seats Dag, Jhalrapatan, Khanpur and Manoharthana in this district and the BJP has won all the 4 seats.
It was being speculated that farmers in this region, were upset after the irregularities committed by middlemen in purchase of garlic crop left them out of the buying process undertaken by the government under the Minimum Support Price scheme. However, BJP ebnded up bagging all the seats.
Similarly, in Kota there are 6 seats. BJP has won 3 seats while the Congress has won the remaining 3 seats here. The story in nearby Bundi constituency is also on the same lines. Out of 3 seats, the BJP has won 2 seats, while congress was left to lick its wounds with only 1 seat.
The maximum resentment against the BJP was witnessed in Baran district where out of 4 seats, BJP has got only one, while Congress has managed to pocket 3 seats. The lone candidate of BJP who has won is Pratap Singh Singhvi from Chhabra constituency. In Anta seat which comes in Baran, agriculture minister Prabhulal Saini was defeated.
It is worth mentioning here that the Congress has in its manifesto announced immediate waiver of farm loans as one of the key policy decisions when voted to power.
