Nagpur. The excitement about the general elections going to be held in the near future of the Municipal Corporation is intensifying. This can be gauged from the fact that many small parties have also started preparing for the elections. Even the BJP, which has been waving the flag on the Municipal Corporation for the last 15 years, has started preparing vigorously to come to power again. But the main opposition Congress is only seen swinging logs in the dark. According to political experts, factionalism in any political party is not a new thing.
Not only Congress but other parties are also not untouched by this. But even after factionalism, there is unity in the party in making an election strategy, which is not visible in the Congress. The astonishing thing is that during these 15 years of BJP’s rule, many wrongdoings and scams have come to the fore. Due to the inaction of the Congress in the Municipal Corporation, the ruling party has been getting a free hand. No issue was raised vigorously under the leadership of the opposition leader. This is the reason that even after having many issues, the Congress is not visible vocal.
The protest remained confined to the meeting only.
According to political experts, the opposition party of the Municipal Corporation has been limited only to the questions being raised in the meetings. The opposition party has never been active on any issue outside the house. Even the public has not been able to go to the public about the failures of the MNP. No cognizance was even taken from the City Congress Committee or the State Congress regarding this condition of the Congress in the Municipal Corporation. Despite being a national party, the office bearers did not raise any voice on such a condition of the party, which may now have to bear the brunt in the election of the Municipality. According to experts, after the defeat in the Legislative Council elections, the chair of some local leaders and ministers was being suspected of being in danger. But even after having 2-2 ministers, no attention is being paid to this condition of the Congress in the Municipal Corporation. Despite being a local state president, the Congress is proving weak in the Municipal Corporation.
The party meeting was held before the meeting of the Municipality
According to sources, before the meeting of the Municipal Corporation, there was a meeting of the councilors to make a strategy to surround the ruling party in the house. In the initial phase of the tenure of these 5 years, meetings were held once or twice, but since then this process has been stopped, which has a direct impact on the performance of the Congress inside the House. After some issues were raised by the Congress councilor, the ruling BJP remained with the councilor but the leader of the opposition did not strongly support him. During the tenure of 5 years, the Congress faced many issues but the opposition leaders could not cash in on these issues.
