Maharashtra Assembly Election Results – Live Blogging
With Maharashtra set to count the ballots, speculation is rife on the many scenarios that will likely unfold.
Here is what Offstumped will be looking forward to in the results.
#1 How viable is the Sharad Pawar factor – does he stand diminished, enhanced or just about stagnant ?
#2 What is the future for NCP as a standalone political entity ?
#3 In the akahara of Sena politics, which cousin emerges “tagda” ?
#4 How effective was Rahul Gandhi’s rhetoric ?
Finally of course the most important question to this blogger if not to the Maharashtra voter – What does this mean to the future of the BJP ?
Maharashtra BJP President Nitin Gadkari ran a marathon campaign of some 100 odd public meetings while his bete-noire Munde gave this election a nepotist hue.
Nitin Gadkari who has also authored a Vision document on transforming Maharashtra’s infrastructure has been touted by both Swapan Dasgupta and Kanchan Gupta as likely to be promoted to New Delhi for BJP top job.
Will this election mark the emergence of a new viable leader who has been the BJP’s best kept secret ?
OR
Will this election merely reinforce the Rajnath stereotype that an election wipeout is a great Resume enhancer if you are contending for the top BJP job ?
So as Maharashtra prepares to count the ballots you can catch Offstumped live on
