Akhilesh Yadav’s PDA: A Political Strategy or A Step towards Indian Renaissance

Samriti DhatwaliaJune 20, 20250

The National President of the Samajwadi Party, Akhilesh Yadav, came up with an acronym ‘PDA’, or Pichhda, Dalit, and Alpsankhyak (Backward Classes, Dalits, and Minorities), as a key part of his political strategy in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. This PDA strategy was a conscious attempt to mobilize marginalized communities in the state, to showcase the sharp divisions along caste lines, far from being merely a catchy electoral slogan. Recently, Yadav’s PDA became more prominent by calling for more members of these communities, particularly the backward castes, to be included in the police force. He said that, "The PDA members have a better understanding of the issues faced by their community, and employing them in the police force will be a great step ahead.” At a campaign rally, he sai

Election 2024: Mayawati To Target Muslim Vote Bank, Know Her Plan

Gunjan ChaudharyMarch 28, 20220

The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), which was reduced to only one seat in the 2022 UP Assembly elections, is also seeing the future of the party through this election result. Party strategists believe that this election result has proved that even after full support of their so-called casteism policy, Samajwadi Party is not able to stop BJP, so those who are also looking for a political alternative to stop BJP are now in a big dilemma. So now, in 2024 they will see hope in BSP itself. Now the party will try to win the confidence of the voters by running a mass campaign that can live up to their expectations, so they should give preference to BSP as an alternative to BJP. BSP believes that the elections of 2022 were deliberately turned into a one-on-one fight of 'BJP vs SP'. When the Samaj...

Punjab Election: With Bare Representation Of Women, Political Parties Focused On Disparate ‘Change’ In State

Snehashish RoyJanuary 31, 20220

'Breaking the glass ceiling' has been one of the war cries across political parties during elections to attract more women voters. Every leader, representing any party, will be seen remarking in favour of increased women participation in politics. However, looking at the most revered candidates' lists for the Punjab Assembly election, a dearth is seen in the number of women candidates. Despite a high-profile campaign launched by the Congress in Uttar Pradesh surrounding women, the echo does not seem to reach Punjab. In UP, Congress promised to dedicate 40% of its tickets to women. Whereas, only 11 out of 109 seats are given to them in Punjab. The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD)-Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) alliance announced 117 candidates and only 5 of them are women. The Aam Aadmi ...

UP Assembly Election: With Mayawati Being Absent From Ground, Dalit Votes Seem Scattering Among Parties

Snehashish RoyJanuary 18, 20220

The Dalit community accounts for as many as 21% of the total vote population in Uttar Pradesh. A section of the population that has decided the fate of politics in the state for the last couple of decades. Since its inception under the leadership of Kanshi Ram, Dalits have been supportive of the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) ever since the 1990s. The party went into an overhaul after Mayawati took charge as the first Dalit woman in India to become a chief minister of a state. Mayawati's technique to amalgamate Dalits and Brahmins using the social engineering formula had given her major success in the 2007 Assembly elections. However, her activism in the current election season seems missing. The former chief minister of UP and social reformer has remained absent on the ground. Und...

Snehashish RoyJanuary 17, 20220

Following the exit of the senior OBC minister Swami Prasad Maurya, the political journey of his daughter Sanghmitra Maurya as a BJP MP seems to reach a difficult path. Maurya's resignation as a minister from the Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanth's cabinet and joining Akhilesh Yadav-led Samajwadi Party (SP) has changed the course of politics in the state.

Once Mayawati Kept Distance From Journalists, Now Considers Media Management Necessary For Election Candidates

Gunjan ChaudharyOctober 19, 20210

To become a candidate of BSP, who once kept a distance from the media, now it is necessary to have knowledge of media management and social media. This is an important question asked in the interview of candidates. If a candidate is not social media friendly and does not meet other criteria, then the media cell will train him/her. At present, the selection of candidates in the party is going on continuously and BSP chief Mayawati herself is taking the final interview.
